   I'd guess that you're looking at data on the US Department of
Defense UFO program.  That's the UHF Follow-On Satellite program
(called UFO).  It's a US Navy fleet communications satellite program
to replace some aging communications satellites that operate in the
"Ultra High Frequency" range of 30 GHz or so.
   It's being built by Hughes (I vaguely know the program manager at
Hughes)and is planned for a near-term Atlas launch, sot that Atlas
launch date is not surprizing.  Although I thought there were
several in the series, and there should also be at least another
planned Atlas launch on the manifest over the next year or so
following the one listed.
   Considering that USAF Systems Command is launching it, and Wright
Patterson AFB is home to part of USAF Systems Command, it certainly
is possible that someone could find a parts list for part of the
satellite program (or at least an experiement or module on the
satellite).
