Maiden flight of ATD-X stealth demonstrator delayed

The maiden flight of Japan’s ATD-X stealth demonstrator will be postponed to April due to engine thrust control software problem.

There is an issue with the engine throttle lever position sensor and engineers are also adding an engine automatic restart feature similar to the F-35.
