could it be a really tight turn? The watermark signature is along the right edge of the pic, suggesting that the picture has been rotated maybe.

Looks like it. The canards looked weird in that picture when vertical (its canards are deflected down but its nose is pointing up), but if you flip it looks like they're trimming on a turn.

Is that a new bird? Isn't 2002 nose painted green?

That picture with 2002 with a green nose is a blatant PS.
All photos indicate that 2002 now has a green nose. Either that or CAC has built another prototype designated 2002 but with a grey nose.

That photo does seem to show something like an IFR. It's probably the lighting, but it looks like the IFR infringes on the grey radome, and that the grey radome looks a good deal larger as well. Not to mention that it looks very much forward of the cockpit.

Let's wait and see.

Did you mean the pitot? It's looks to be without the thing, but reallly hard to tell for suer. But this one does look more like the original 2002 (the nose color and the way inlet covers were put there).

I think he meant the vertical spiky lines from the pic when it first came out blurry.
