What mystery?
Astra is s radar guided missile with max range of 110km and effective range of 70-90km.
Tapas ng can use it's EO/IR( the ball on its chin) to guide the missile , so it can hit any target within 70-90km easily, especially other low speed isr drones.
While at the same time it will outrange any other drone in air to air combat as they only have EO/IR sensors and can only guide IR missiles at range of about 15-20km most.

So tapas will outrange any other drone and win any bvr engagement with another drone.

Current CATS Warrior is in fact a 2-ton loyal wingman UCAV powered by 2 PTAE-W engines with max combined thrust of 7-8KN. There is a bigger CATS Warrior under development which will be powered by HTFE-25 engine with max thrust of 25KN.

Not sure, but could be the HALE UCAN they are intending to build.

I can go on and on, on multiple issues with ultimately concluding that it's just a mock-up by some intern who took creative liberty but the fact that you took your time to explain to me what's an EO "EO/IR(the ball on its chin)" is more than enough
Peace 🙏

Serious le liya kya mere comment ko?
I even explained that tapas will guide a "radar" guidedmissile with it's "EO/IR", while others can only guide "IR:guided missiles with their "EO/IR".
