Since the compound noun 'flying saucers' has no collective noun of its own, you can borrow the collective noun for planes: a fleet of flying saucers.
You could borrow the collective noun for dishes (saucers): a set of flying saucers.
Or, you can use a word of your own choosing. When a noun becomes commonly used as a collective noun for something, that noun becomes 'the' collective noun for that noun.
