Orka is planned to weigh 220kg. Those stub wings can handle that weight. That tracks with all other light weight naval helicopters as well.

T625 concluded its cold weather tests in Kiruna, Sweden at -25 degrees. Interestingly, "TC-HLR" could be a new prototype, I don't think we ever saw this registry before. Previous 4 prototypes were orange/yellow and then blue P0 HLP, blue P1 HLI, gendarme livery P2 HLV and the black P3 HLH. This HLR is either a re-registry, or a new prototype.
