Do the proportions in this AI-made side view of the KAAN look right?

MKE 2025 yearly report says that they finished RnD for Radar absorbent Nano materials that can be used as structural elements in aircrafts. Doubt it would be used in Kaan but I don't know where else to put it

Cant even build proper munitions/guns in the past but all of a sudden its LM. We have a couple of smaller companies working on Ram coating but those are most like the more budget friendly options to reduce Rcs without great investments. At most these are for guided munitions

Yeah it saying it can be used as structural material made me think of Kamikaze drones. It is probably a composite that will slightly reduce the rcs or that would be the most logical explanation

So yeah I hope someone took screenshots of the ~ last week pages on this important thread given convo heavy basis etc...to patch in/restore now...... as the forum rollback (to get the AZ-ARM thread back that was accidentally perma deleted) happened ahead of schedule before I could get here.

If not, if members can think back to sufficient degree what were the main updates/news that guided the convo and just repost those....the convo can be regenerated organically etc.

If this can be done for all the main threads in general, that would be great.

Thank you for your understanding members.

Things are finally starting to move forward – it’s taken long enough. I hope they’ll be flying in August or September and that there’ll be loads of Sorties.

See the vertical stab bases, more than one test, or more than one prototype.

Every other big avionic except the yıldırım DIRCM seems to be in place. Do we know where and when it will be integrated?
