Declassified at Last: Air Force’s Supersonic Flying Saucer Schematics

Officially, aliens have never existed but flying saucers very nearly did. The National Archives has recently published never-before-seen schematics and details of a 1950s military venture, called Project 1794, which aimed to build a supersonic flying saucer.

The newly declassified materials show the U.S. Air Force had a contract with a now-defunct Canadian company to build an aircraft unlike anything seen before. Project 1794 got as far as the initial rounds of product development and into prototype design. In a memo dating from 1956 the results from pre-prototype testing are summarized and reveal exactly what the developers had hoped to create.

The saucer was supposed to reach a top speed of “between Mach 3 and Mach 4, a ceiling of over 100,000 ft. and a maximum range with allowances of about 1,000 nautical miles,” according to the document.
 
Lol, SO THAT'S WHY ALL THE SIGHTINGS ARE RIGHT BY TOP SECRET AIR CRAFT TESTING AREAS!

so speculation finally becomes fact

The Avrocar has been an open secret for a decade or so now. Nothing to see or learn here folks, except it never went much faster than you can run, or got more than a few feet off the ground. The R&D cost a bundle too. What does seem new is the schematic of its layout. This may be a "scoop" for Wired but they're really late on the pics and vids.
 
By no means do I believe in "UFO's" but, wouldn't be relatively simple to create a fictitious project, or disclose a dead project, as a way to explain something that has no explanation
 
This interesting little aircraft cannot possibly explain a lot of UFO reports. That said, I do not think that UFOs are of extraterrestrial origin. I wonder though, what the fuel consumption of this saucer was.
 
This isn't anything new, the Avrocar has been declassified for a long time now. It never really worked out.

I wouldn't put to much credibility in any astronaut.

In "any"? That's a bit extreme. They are human too. Just sayin...


I have a feeling that NASA chose mentally ill people on purpose. No loss if they didn't make it, and easy to control. Chuck Yeager seems stable and didn't want to be strapped to the top of a missile.

I find mentally ill people perform really well under stress; what I want to bank my career on is choosing someone that may come unglued to place in control of a multi-billion dollar investment and potentially disappoint thousands of career researcher and scientists.

Funny how in some threads the US gov't can't do the simplest things yet in other threads pull off feats of decade long deceptions.

Alan Alda had a TV special 10 years ago that explained that.
There are books much older than that with pictures that tell of the USA trying to develop disc flying machines.
Without computer controls, it couldn't be flown well- a flop.
