Kevin D. Randle

 Kevin_D._Randle keeps asking the big questions about various cosmic mysteries. Of course some of his research gets into forbidden territory, because some can't fathom the idea that there might be intelligent interplanetary civilizations.

While a UFO could be under the category of a UAP, UFO remains as the more common term. Especially in regards to what seems to be very advanced spacecraft.

Of course the Top+Gun movies aren't about any encounters with any UAP or UFOs. A totally different kind of movie would have to cover that subject matter.

The UFO phenomenon goes right back into ancient times with some forbidden UAP implications.

The Roswell UFO crash is purported to be a physical spacecraft with occupants. However, any ET crash would officially have to be denied.

UAP is a much more vague and general term, which could be applied to almost anything. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioship

ET would imply a physical being or creature from another world, but likely from the same universe.

"A novelization by Martin Caidin, based on the screenplay, was released in the same month and largely dovetailed with the film presented on screen (the novelization ending with Lasky accompanying Tideman/CDR Owens and Laurel to their home, where it is revealed that the time travel phenomenon explored in the film had an extraterrestrial origin that is not further expanded upon)." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Final_Countdown_(film)#Release

Of course the UFO phenomenon goes back into ancient times.

An 8-Pointed UFO

 https://www.coasttocoastam.com/article/video-8-pointed-ufo-sparks-biblical-ophanim-theories/ 

A UAP is just a fancy way of considering some mysterious objects as some kind of natural or bizarre atmospheric phenomena. However, UFO has more of a connotation that it might be an ET-AI drone or a spacecraft. Perhaps even a time traveling ship or an interdimensional vehicle.
