Notes
A tandem-wing one-way aircraft with a box-shaped fuselage. TWZ describes supplier material and other reporting; NV separately interviews a defence analyst, but both publications draw performance and prices from the developer and Forbes. They do not provide two independent flight tests. Reports differ on payload, so no universal explosive mass is assigned. The silhouette is a generic fixed-wing class cue, not a scale drawing of the tandem-wing model. Aircraft unit price remains unknown: the reported USD 15000 baseline airframe excludes guidance/extras, while roughly USD 30000 is another configuration and USD 25999 an older starting offer, not a comparable price interval.
