Improved IR variant maybe?

And is there a possibility of that black bit being a radome for a MMW seeker?

That is the theory as of now, but no confirmation as of yet.

Allegedly Thales and DGA have been testing if a dedicated EW pod would be necessary for Rafale F5, and this may be that pod.

I wouldn’t praise this source but I would say the infographic in this case (besides the botched model) is pretty accurate, no?

Better furtivity and engine / reduced signature for it are not confirmed as far as i know but overall it is right.

M88 T-REX is not officially confirmed. It’s being looked at but very budget-dependent.
Stealth stuff is made up.
Other than that I personally see no other wrong information here.

No smoke trail because its a cruise missile now! Very nice!

It isn’t, sources do confirm that part.

You got me
