See? You proved my point...This stuff is all just the fabrication of people with excellent imaginations and above-average photoshop skills. The only real "saucers" were the AVRO saucer which was unstable and underpowered and the Grumann XF5U "Flying Flapjack" which never got past the taxiing stage.

The payoff with the alleged USAF "Saucer" is the outlandishly oversized fin and the lack of any evidence of power sources (Vanna, can you give me an intake?)...and I love those ridiculous multiwheel landing gear! Imagine the fun of designing those things to retract efficiently into that thin section wing..
