Secretariat of National Defense

Secretaría de la Defensa Nacional

Mexico's army and air force secretariat — the body that released the 2004 Campeche infrared footage and its file.

No scorecard yet

Aletheca has not filed with this body, so there is nothing to measure. A zero here would read as “releases nothing” rather than “never asked”, which is why the row is absent instead of empty. Filing outside the United States is not yet supported, so for now this record is for reading and routing.

How it takes requests

Routes marked verified were fetched and confirmed against the body’s own official pages; those marked unconfirmed are well documented but have not been checked here, and none has been proven by a delivered letter. Aletheca cannot yet originate a request outside the United States — this record exists so a request about these holdings can be routed to the right door.

What it holds

  • The March 2004 Campeche FLIR incident records, released by the Secretary of Defense that May
  • Air-surveillance and radar reports from the Sistema Integral de Vigilancia Aérea
  • Sighting correspondence answered through transparency requests

Record classes this kind of body normally keeps. Useful for drafting a request a records officer can act on without guessing — a request describing records the agency does not hold is refused as no-records, which costs a filing fee and teaches nobody anything.

Filing tips

  • File through the PNT; SEDENA answers in Spanish and leans on the seguridad-nacional reserve for operational detail.
  • The 2004 Campeche material is the documented precedent — cite the existing release when asking for related records.
