After a short research my conclusion is:
That is a target drone!

And it looks allot like this swedish target drone.

I think you'll find that its a copy of the Boeing BQM - which is a drone and had been adapted by a few countries as a latent cruise missile.

BQM can be fired off the back of a large truck, hence why I think that this cruise missile is just a reengineered BQM/ADF Kalkara. The Indians also have a re-engineered BQM, but I can't recall what its name is.

Its not Iranian at all - its a knock off.

As for ratmuffs pics, Its also not swedish. it was probably a bqm test flying out of NEAT facilities.



Above is the ADF's Kalkara.

nothing to get so interested about
they arent going to move about with it on a truck in highway

look even the supports are basic types used on props.

this is a fibreglass or plywood model for use in some defence show or parade.

have you guys imagined how it will be launched with those two missiles.
there is only one place it can work ......in some james bond movie

A fitting name for the james bond movie "Drones are forever"

IIRC some of the BQMs also carried and fired missiles in anger during the Viet Nam conflict.

The actual BQM (and the ADF's Kalkara, as well as Indias Lakshya) can deliver railed weapons.

For goodness sake. we have been down this path before.

No more on this damn Drone!.

It's a rebadged BQM/MQM. Look at the profile shape, solhouette, tanks, engine placement. everything it's compliments of a US design done 40 years ago.

The shape hasn't even changed in 40 years.

Am closing this post as we're going around in circles.
