@Khafee since u r at IDEX , i am begging you sir to plz try to extract details of this jet and is this the final model or J31 will have total of 3 designs in future. IS this design carrier borne and meant specially for PLAN ...and why doesnt it have EOTS . and ask when are we supposed to see a flying prototype of this model?

any specialiaty ?

the changes i can predict currently are that -
1 . Single piece bubble canopy
2 . Curvy inlets unlike flattened inlets of 31001
3 . No EOTS
4 . TAIL FLAPS CHOPPED FROM BENEATH
5 . Nose not diamond shaped rather more like thunder .
6 . Frontal RCS increased as canopy is raised

Otokar and UAE signed deal worth 661 million $ for Arma 8x8 vehicles !

And we had idiots going on about how bad UAE & Turkey's relationship was. Sad day for the losers!

I don't know the variants but Media reports a number of 700 Arma 8x8 vehicles.
