Is that thing (in the red circle) for rescue missions, something like a hook mechanism?

It is the crane to lover and hoist payloads.

But then will there be again design change of helicopter after TS-3000 is developed?

Design change is daily activity of an engineer in Turkish Defense Industry, so anyway, yes.

ATAK-2 is going to need hefty IR suppressors to cool down the heat generated by the Ukrainian engines, we will likely see a cooling system developed similar to the one used on Mi-28.

AW119 has a single engine. No details on the smaller variant of T625 but will be something like the AW119 or the venerable AW109.

How much is percentange of chance that Atak 2 even if is direct hit by stinger igla or others still can survive and land safely ??

I am not sure even if a CH-47 or CH-53 could survive a direct hit by MANPAD.
Let alone Atak-2 or apache class helicopters.

Good news is DIRCM will be introduce on Atak-2. Which should protect the helicopter against IR missiles.
