Your link, 16:25 close up of the model shows some similarity to the SR-71.

Yeah, the full head on view does recall the Sr-71.

Would that thing even register on radar screens? Has practically zero cross-section head on, and from the side just the engine housing bulge and the vertical stabilizers.

With just the Go-Pro it provides amazing video as a fast, below tree top recon bird.

Wonder if a sky blue paint scheme with a dark outline of vulture would confuse the eye...of course vultures aren’t that fast.
