It looks like an air balloon

Lighter than air vehicle. Basically just a blimp. The shape enhances lift and maneuverability. No biggie.

@TheMorado75 Well I imagine it came from an alien a really, really long time ago. The idea anyway. The name"Flying Saucers", was introduced by a veteran pilot in the late 40's. When asked how the ufo's that he was flying next to looked like he described them as being saucer shaped. From there the name just kinda of stuck.

Do u REAALY think the Russians would allow a real manmade UFO to be seen and displayed like this? Have you never seen the movie Firefox with Clint Eastwood.
