Saucer looking planes

Above, MiG’s Skat unmanned combat air vehicle mock-up — see more images at the Ares blog, and info by Bill Sweetman. Many of the UAVs and UCAVs being developed are flying wings, ant their resemblance to flying saucers has been noted for a long time.
Curiously, Kenneth Arnold’s original sighting was much more similar to flying wings than a flying saucer, which even led some to speculate whether he could have seen prototypes by the german Horten brothers. The general opinion, though, is that that’s not a very probable solution to his sighting. If you are up to mundane explanations for this seminal sighting, you can just stick to pelicans.
