ORAC - That may be in the spec but the flying wing design of X-47/Taranis/Neuron etc makes it difficult to build in a decent A-A radar, not to mention handling characteristics.

Glad Rag - Wiki has it as First flight - 18 June 1981, IOC - October 1983, Retired - 22 April 2008.

So UK plans to buy F/A XX from the US.....???
