Intresting idea and premesis. Would the what-if polish aircraft been powered by the Vipers also? How plausible would have been the availability of British engines for Poland, or would it had needed other engine solutions?

@Gollevainen
Hard to tell about the engines. Since in the real-world the matter didn't progressed beyond "-Would you like?... -Nah...", it's not even something that can be a subject of an "educated guess". Maybe if actually progressed, then the final product would resemble more TS-16 rather than J-22/IAR-93 as we know it? I just kept it simple and straightforward. Though it can be noted, that prototype of TS-11 Iskra was powered by Viper.

I really like the idea of the Polish Oraro variant, something that could have been a very useful platform for them to replace the older MiGs and some of the Su-22 perhaps.
Engines might have been a sticking point, but perhaps not insurmountable for Poland to get a licence for the Viper.
