If you want something in class of F-117 that FLIR is the least of your problem as you you always can cover it in the body but the plane is too small for that and clearly need a more powerful engine. Also don't forget that F117 was not only a bomber it was designed so it could participate in air to air combat and for that you can't rely on gravity to send the missile out of internal bays, you need some sort of ejecting system.
I just stated the obvious ... but if the Qaher that is about to fly at the end is as light as what they taxied then there are problems ..
I didn't see the second part of your post F 117 was a bomber that for some reasons the US tried to introduce it as fighter too.
Well the aircraft is unstable in all of its 3 axes and could not go over the speed of sound because it used a nonafterburning underpowered engine that could only produce about half of power that was accessible to airplane like F-15.also for reducing the detection chance they didn't put any radar in it.
Well n and b designs didn't get approval but the current design only hit a helicopter by dropping a bomb while it was started to hover ..so if we wanna use such a concept we're gonna face a lot of problems ..
F117 was solely produced to be invisible on enemy radar and drop bombs. That’s it. It was a flying coffin at best. If detected it was royalty f:d. Qaher is obviously not developed with solely those requirements so you can rest assured that it will not be used in the same way and will have completely different flying characteristics.
its stealth characteristic is very similar to F-117, it seems that it mainly rely on first generation stealth techniques that rely on scattering RADAR waves away from their sources.
