We are promoting the aircraft used by our own air forces for pilot training. It is only a training course. We understand that it will not remain as an aircraft. It is an aircraft that will also be used as a short-range aircraft with minor modifications. The National Combat Aircraft (MMU) is an aircraft with much more advanced capabilities. The MMU is different, HURJET can take place in different fields of application. Most importantly, our first jet trainer experience It happened with HURJET. We expect many orders. We have equipment that we can use to get data to test the aircraft after it takes off. Combined with this information, we can see how far our aircraft has reached the performance parameters targeted during the design phase. This is a process, we move to the decision phase with the information received from there. I hope as soon as possible. Inventory out. We've added some exterior elements to speed things up. Our goal for all systems is to put our aircraft into service at 90 percent capacity.
