For what it's worth, the crash at Roswell was allegedly mutilated handicapped children as a scare tactic by Stalin to show her could instill fear in the US population before he had a functioning hydrogen bomb. These remains were originally thought to not be human and then hidden even from other government entities.

Close. They were reportedly alive when it crashed. Supposedly Stalin captured Dr Mengele at the end of WWII, used him to surgically transform mentally handicapped children into gray-skinned, large-headed, large-eyed "beings" and flew them on a prototype disc-like aircraft that was piggy-backed on a long range aircraft in order to show the US he could reach the New Mexico nuclear development sites while also scaring the US population in a similar manner to the War of the Worlds broadcast. This data was obtained from a collection of FOIA requests, interviews with contractors, and interviews with EEG engineers that all worked in and around Area 51.

It's a lot to claim, but it seems to fit together more reliably than aliens from hundreds of thousands of light years away happening to find us and make no real contact.

Sounds like fringe but fascinating rabbit hole, thanks!

My late uncle believed we were testing atomic powered aircraft. The bodies were in radiation suits. Lots of conspiracy theories on this one.

If it were a scare tactic they wouldn't crash land at Roswell. They'd go somewhere more densely populated and visible so it wouldn't be so easily covered up.

I don't believe it was intended to crash. But to your second point, it was supposed to be near White Sands, New Mexico; the home of the US nuclear weapons program. This in order to show the US that Stalin could reach that site if he wanted.
