Actually, there's a pretty old theory that UFO's are/were supersonic helicopters. According to it, instead of blades, the 'rotor' section was a
dish with fins/ridges rising from it. Think of the way a woman's ballroom gown flutters when she spins... that's how these things supposedly
looked.
If I remember correctly, the idea that 'saucers' are of german design came from the Italian press in the late 1940s.
