I have still problems with the design of Kizilelma. It doesn’t look “LO enough “ , less matured. Try to compare it with Ghost Bat.

Why? What makes Ghost Bat more stealth?

As common knowledge canard may considered as an effecting factor in LO ... surface finishing is important as well (concerning surface finishing so far we have seen prototypes and ''production prototypes'' (KIZILELMA PT-series ) not wise to expect Boeing or TAI (once assigned to manufacture center fuselages of F 35 and now KAAN) manufacruring standards from Baykar overnight.

all aspect stealth and low RSC from all directions should be an expensive masterpiece... may not worth it for an unmanned platform.

Further, our requirements and our reality or the role we envisioned for KIZILELM may defintly be different from requirements which created Ghost Bat or other projects.

we can assume that path of lower RCS from certain direction(s) has been followed and/or prioritized for KIZILELMA

AND eventhough we have never heard a single word about it, Luneburg lenses on KIZILELMA is definitly a good sign

Current Kızılelme isn't the final form of Kızılelma.

Why? What makes Ghost Bat more stealth?

First, Ghost Bat looks from one piece. Second, the Air intake and fuselage looks seamless. Third, all the visible screws and rivets on Kizilelma. Fourth, the Radome is more flush mounted and less straight like be Kizilelma. And some more points I could count if you want?..

I thought that’s the final design of mass production.

Nope. This is the final design for LRIP. Some amount of Kızılelma will be delivered next year. Subtle changes will continue, particularly those that affect stealth.

Landing gears doesn't even have coverings after they retract. So Have can this be final form?

Your first 2 points are about the paint, not the drone lol and 4th is just a bent nose, how does that effect its RCS?

About a ton of munitions there. 4 Mk-82s and a Mam-T to top it off.

You think the reason why Ghost Bat loooks from one piece and without screws and rievets is just the paint?

More than a ton like 1.150 kilograms

They have now

Only one of them for now.

To me this is what winning looks like.

We still did not see the IWB in action, not bombs but it should fire cruisemissiles.
