The prop has eight blades just like the E2C Hawkeye, did not expect that as the demonstrator has six blades like the Y9.

That's clearly fake, even the tail looks like E-2.

The image is not genuine. The proportions of the stabilisers are off too.

@KIENCHIN same engine and propeller , Bro I'm surprises that @by78 and @Deino hadn't post it and I'm afraid it might be fake.

It is fake, bro sorry for posting it, I should had look at the 6 propellers as a guide before posting, again my bad.

Are they expected to be individually removable like ours are?

IMO a fake pic would have the complete plane in it, & be of a better quality.

Given the pitch of each individual turboprop blade can be adjusted (fine pitch provides good low speed operations during takeoff/climb/approach, coarse pitch yields optimum fuel economy during the cruise), I'd expect each individual blade to be removable/replaceable.
