They seemed to aim for a first flight in 2021 along with IOC in 2025, so an accelerated timeline between first flight and IOC was probably already planned for. They even pushed back nuclear weapon integration to after IOC… Whether it will go according to plan is another question.


Simply extrapolating from the actual date of first flight in 2023, I would expect it to reach IOC in 2027-2028.
