New Zealand’s Military Searched 16 Years of Records for ‘UFO.’ The Answer Was ‘Nil Results.’
Answering an Official Information Act request, the New Zealand Defence Force says a keyword search of its correspondence from January 2010 to June 2026 for ‘UFO’ and ‘UAP’ produced ‘nil results.’ The reason is on the record: since its 2010 file dump, the NZDF has said it neither investigates nor keeps UFO reports, and sends them to the Civil Aviation Authority.
