Probably for Ground testingIt is a mockup since there are no air data sensors.
The nose is identical to the actual prototypes that were shown. U sure it's a mock-up?I don't know if it's used for testing but it's a mockup
No its real prototype , just look at its landing gearI don't know if it's used for testing but it's a mockup
I think so too. But that would mean TAI has entered god mode. I mean this wasn't that long ago was it?No its real prototype , just look at its landing gear
Well, look at the renders, it is what it should look like, so no problem I suppose. Also, it is not really flat but the lightening and the paint lessens the effect of the curve thereEverything looks real but the bottom part of the cockpit front is flat and looks unreal.
I don't think there is anything wrong tbhEverything looks real but the bottom part of the cockpit front is flat and looks unreal.
Yeah, I think it is just the lightening making the curvature look like a flat red surface below the cockpitI don't think there is anything wrong tbh
They already finished the prototype? Wow! TAI is really enthusiastic about this project
Thank you for the image. Seems you're right. Looks like TAI has built a second mock-up.Better quality

Why does a mock-up have functioning aerodynamic surfaces, I am 99.9% sure that this is the ground tests prototype. There is literally no need for building a new mock-up when you have a ground tests versionThis is a mockup guys.

Nvm, the inlets are blocked and there are cardboard pieces. So yes, a mock-upWhy does a mock-up have functioning aerodynamic surfaces, I am 99.9% sure that this is the ground tests prototype. There is literally no need for building a new mock-up when you have a ground tests version
Now they might not be functioning... They're most likely there for realism purposes. TAI probably went "we gotta update the mock-up, because there has been a design change". You can't have a mock-up that has a different design to the original aircraft that's under development. Look at how the engine intakes are covered. And just take a look at the canopy. There is a MASSIVE gap between it and the fuselage.Why does a mock-up have functioning aerodynamic surfaces, I am 99.9% sure that this is the ground tests prototype.
