This isn't actually all that secret. It's been published for over 4 years before it even managed a test flight.
Having worked in that sector, the interesting shit is always what you haven't heard about.

The challenge for UAV going forward is to operate autonomously. Stealth is useless if its communications with a satellite are obvious, and almost all drones are useless if GPS is jammed. I haven't found any information indicating that the Taranis solves these problems.

It looks a lot like the one the US Navy has created for carrier-based operations - are they sharing technologies like the NSA and GCHQ?

I bet it is also capable of launching precision air strikes in /friendly/ territory...

What do we do to make sure these tools are not turned on us?
