lol

UFO With Aliens Takes Off From Field? | Watch the video - Yahoo Yahoo UK

Though laughingly anyone remember Sikorsky Cypher UAV or the 1950s USN yellow Flying Pancake

Sikorsky Cypher - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

At my uni one of the many albeit limited suggested final year projects for us aerospace engineering students funnily enough was a design of an UAV (think somewhere along the spec was saucer shaped) for counter drug ops / spraying of drug plants.

Nice film though swear the landing gear resembles the Skunk Works P-791 u/c skirt cushions lol


Cheers
