Why should they make a new mockup while the actual prototype is counting days to emerge.
Must be for ground test as it does not have a pitot tube on the nose or anywhere.

I don't know if it's used for testing but it's a mockup

Everything looks real but the bottom part of the cockpit front is flat and looks unreal.

No its real prototype , just look at its landing gear
I think so too. But that would mean TAI has entered god mode. I mean this wasn't that long ago was it?

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 there

This is a mockup guys.
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 version

Nvm, the inlets are blocked and there are cardboard pieces. So yes, a mock-up

But why would they make another mock-up? Maybe for Malaysia?

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.
