Defence Department Builds Flying Saucers - Inspired By UFOs? (VIDEO)

Flying saucers have been built that look exactly like the tabloids predicted they would. The unmanned saucer takes off vertically and can land almost anywhere. They are smaller and cheaper than helicopters, and are considered useful in urban war zones by the Defense Department.

The flying saucer is powered by a propeller which pushes air down to create lift. The saucer can be scaled from foot long disk to a larger craft. The device is battery powered.

This news could drive some tabloids over the edge.
