Well, it would be, given that Eurotrainer was a much smaller, lower performance design ('high subsonic', as opposed to the M-346/T-100 being considered 'transonic', let alone this one with its afterburning engine and therefore almost certainly supersonic performance). As others have mentioned, there does appear to be some heritage in the forward fuselage (nose, canopy, LERX, intakes) though.As for the rest, I decided to defer the ironing, studied the teaser videos closely and broke out the pencil (well, and liberal use of the eraser too...) Single fin is an assumption, loosely based on the Eurotrainer proposal - the vertical tail is about the only area of the airframe for which the sneak peek movies offer absolutely no clues, so twin tails for better high AoA handling remain possible.EDIT: I may have somewhat exaggerated the span on the wing and stabs, though chord seems close enough?
