and K2s wings are more swept back , dont see that here


but the biggest indication is we havent heard anything about paf purchasing K2s , remember we have known about sahin and korkut for like half a year now .

That screenshot itself is from a clip that's around 2/3 something years old. I think it was originally from that induction ceremony video which had the FC-31 announcement. Way back in early 2024. That video has since been deleted but DGPR has used that clip in various PR videos since

2:25 time stamp. This one was posted last year in 2025
 
red propellers?
not propellers thats the cover , red is pretty common for these things including at PAF
