To me, it looks like this Northrup Grumman Marine stealth drone seen at the 2004 Miramar Airshow. Size and wheel configuration are spot on. Pretty cool drone indeed!

Hmmm.. only if the front wheel well covers have been modified in this variant, but I agree it is very similar.

The one in the pic at top is smaller. You can tell it’s closer to the ground, and the wheelbase is shorter too. Also, the nosewheel is nearly the same size as the rear gear, whereas the N/G machine has smaller nosewheels, and it only has one, where the NG has duals. Also, if the gear cover is anything to go by, the nosewheel on the one at top retracts differently than the NG.

Takes all the fun out of having a top secret photo, doesn’t it?

Very cool. It’s very similar.
