Look at the shadows of the wings and the reflection under the wing, it looks unnatural.

I don't believe it's for Anka. We have seen the radom part of Anka earlier. Comparing this thing with that this is quite different. It seems cockpit glass to me.

Who knows for what is it?

The one that you saw before could be mock up, because latest photo(the one that golgelerinprensi shared) is very similar to ANKA's radome.It may be used for only flight tests or something else.

We've seen a finished radome which has been shared by Meteksan

Picture @golgelerprensi has posted seems to be the testing phase of a non-painted radome, it's definitely a radome because the picture shows them using R/F equipment (waveguide horn and reflector) to test it.

I remember ANKA-S making it's first flight almost a year ago.

So, what's this second "first flight" is about ?
