SECRET PROJECTS FLYING SAUCER AIRCRAFT There has for years been a great deal of speculation on whether flying saucers, and the aliens who are supposed to favour these as a form of transportation, have any basis in reality or are mere fantasies. What can be established is that over many decades experimental aircraft designs have been produced in different countries which can be described as being similar to flying saucers or flying wings. Such aircraft are usually shrouded in secrecy. Some of these types were developed before and during World War Two though most date from the post-war era. The Pen- tagon spent millions with defence contrac- tors on research and development in this field during the 1950s whilst later NASA got involved in funding this research. This is the ultimate ‘secret projects’ book, and may well be the first non-fiction book on flying saucers! All of the craft featured in the book are grounded in reality and not fantasy.
