      Really nothing new here.
      As Biker has noted, rather striking similarity to the Pilatus PC-9, almost a plagiarism of the Swedes airframe by Beechcraft.

      Beechcraft (now a division of Textron) AT-6 Wolverine
      Upgraded and armed version of the Texan II
      It is hoped to be the CAS airframe to take some of the light work away from the A-10.

        Beechcraft and Pilatus partnered in the 90s. So maybe the T6 is an improved PC9.
