Looks like smoke residue from the APU.

Does anyone know if RD-93MA is in serial production?

Are we sure these videos are from Nigeria? The extent of the assembled unit leads me to believe that it is; only the radome, wings, and horizontal stabilizers have been removed.

If so, it would be quite interesting to know why they chose to deliver them as SKDs instead of just ferrying them over. Especially after already assembling and flight testing them. Doesn't make any logistical sense to me, except that there might not have been an available pit stop on the route. Anyone have any ideas?

There is no official designation "JF-17P", we own it. don't start creating designations on your own and create confusion.
