Let's assume that one of the regular UAP reports is about a flying black triangular shaped object with a light at each corner of the underside. This is a frequent category of report. It is likely to be a Lockheed Martin TR3B. It is clear that the USAF owns several of them. Nobody officially acknowledges the existence of this craft. If you asked Lockheed Martin for its basic specification and compared that with the almost daily reports of a black triangular UAP then this one could be almost certainly closed as solved.

But would Lockheed Martin supply any details whatsoever? Would the USAF confirm that they were operating a TR3B in the given location at the time of the sighting?

I cite not just this example but also the general concept of cooperation from government, armed forces and aircraft makers etc.

Below I show two TR3Bs.
