Is this the Ghatak UCAV? The Ghatak is @DRDO_India 's worst kept secret. Yes officially, the project is secret! So DRDO won't confirm or deny that this artwork, plugging DRDO's simulation capabilities displayed at #AeroIndia2019 represents the Ghatak

Assuming this is the Ghatak, it is indeed an impressive design representing advanced aerodynamics and signature reduction that would need to be backed up with equally advanced materials and manufacturing techniques.

IDP Sentinel members can read more about the Ghatak project at sites.google.com/site/idpsentin…

Speaking at AeSI yesterday, DRDO Chief Satheesh confirmed that work on the Ghatak UCAV powered by a non after burning variant of the Kaveri was underway.
