Another day, another failed promise given by TAI officials. Waiting for tomorrow :)

Did they promise to give publicity to this internal event that would happen within TAI, NO.

This is either the second prototype being built. Or it's the prototype that was (for some reason) taken off the final assembly line in order to fit some avionics in?

EDIT: If it's not the latter then it would be a little weird. Why didn't the prototype that was recently transferred to the final assembly line have avionics installed? Flyable and non-flyable difference maybe? Difficult to tell. The bulkhead also seems to be in a different color. Classic yellow to be precise...

Those engines are not stealth so the F35 will still have some stealth advantage over the early TFX. And Hürjet is not a big deal as it is not a stealth design.
Also, Hürjet has RCS reduction techniques like non parallel intakes, hidden nozzle (to some extent) Stealth (kind of) shaped nose and some more

Stealth shaped nose :/ The frontal fuselage doesn't scream stealth to me. It looks as stealthy as an F-16.

No, it doesn't have to look like an F-35 or F-22, it is not 90° to the wings?
Check

Has angles that doesn't lead to somewhere else also check that's why I said kind of

I got what you meant. But are you saying this based on the mock-up you saw or the latest rendering?

Render and the mockups, yes this pic is more detailed and better but you can't really see the angles because of the compression and stretch of the photo. Like the radome/nose sector is not that small, at all
