Human-made exotic craft

Human-made exotic craft (also human-built exotic craft, reverse-engineered craft, or man-made UFO) are exotic craft designed and built by humans on Earth, chiefly during the 20th and 21st centuries, by reverse-engineering recovered non-human craft — in many accounts with the direct assistance of non-human devices, materials, or personnel, giving rise to coalition and hybrid programs. They constitute the man-made subset of exotic craft, distinguished within Steven Greer's taxonomy from genuine non-human craft; the archetype is the alien reproduction vehicle (ARV), the "Flux Liner" reproduction demonstrated at Norton Air Force Base in 1988, and the best-known operational example is the triangular TR-3B.

The lineage of human-made exotic craft is traced from early 20th-century electrogravitics and German flying-disc research (the Haunebu, Die Glocke and Repulsine) through the corporate electrogravitics programs of the 1950s to the classified Aurora program and later secret space program fleets, whose craft are built and crewed as the military and colonial arms of both human factions and allied off-world powers rather than as independent civilizations. Their development is documented at reverse engineering of exotic and NHI technology, the exotic technology development program and exotic technology engineering programs, and the suppression of the same technology at concealment of exotic technology; individual craft are catalogued at List of types of exotic craft.
