The spotty Jag tested the revised Adour, not the F125N. Honeywell are still working to integrate the F125N to the Jaguar and the project is progressing.

XX737 is shown in the video. Honeywell have also brought a T4 frame from Everett Aero, XX150 I think for system integration development. If Honeywell had flown a Jaguar powered with the F125N, they might have let the world know about it via them, it would have been great PR, so take logic as an answer, not an "Insider". A few clues in the video would mention FADEC control and weight saving. A few changes required to the air frame required to accommodate those are likely. I know XX737 hasn't flown with one, it was sold by the MoD RAF with a big hole in the front of it after a bird strike in 2005, that happened at Leeming. The last RAF trained Jag pilot flew it back to Colt while he was still on the OCU, after it had been expediently repaired.
