bGatti do bear in mind that this was developed in Pakistan and I'm assuming you're talking about Palestine.. they are thousands of miles apart....but neighboring India does have the exact Israeli version.....so the inspiration bit cannot be denied :)
The Nose is quite different - The Israeli is compound taper, this is simple wedge. The Boxy parts are similar to all boxes; the motor would appear to be set lower, and the twin tail does not appear to be deflected inward.
That said - I suspect that the logical "inspiration" for a UAV in THAT part of the World comes from regular fly-over's by the Israeli Occupation - with perhaps enough mission failures to provide well-documented specs in the hands of its indigenous populations.
Box is not a tool box it is a 12v lead acid battery for starting engine, photo was edited to remove personal photos from back ground. In-tented payload is day camera video and day camera photo shot also thermal imager for night.
The aircraft in the background look... stretched? I'm not an expert on Sukhoi / MiG, but I didn't think they were THAT wide. Look at the aircraft second from right.

what is the name of this UAV?

hey, the fuselage is exactly the same, the wing, and the horizontal and the vertical tail... even its deflection...
i agree that the systems inside are what counts, but the shape outside, what could be a better starting point than designing one by yourself....
the weird thing is, why use an old 90's design ?
Rip off?
c'mon - the basic pusher boxy UAV layout genre is firmly established.
The general shape is not what makes it fly - it's a combination of materials, engine, and control.
everything else is some compromise between bird-shaped and easy to build.
I get a strong sense that this UAV/member is being attacked for reasons other than merit.
Rip off

These are MiG-29. The right one looks ok, but the second from right is really stretched. Distance between the keels is too much really.
