Modernizacija aviona J-22 (i dvosede varijante NJ-22) predstavljena je javnosti aprila 2016. godine pod nazivom ,,Orao 2.0”. Ova modernizacija urađena pod okriljem firme SDPR Yugioimport fokusira se više na navigacijsku i nišansku opremu kao i instalacije novog naoružanja. Detalji međutim o konstruktivnim izmenama na avionu kao i konkretnom proširenju arsenala ubojitih sredstava nisu objavljeni široj javnosti. Ovaj predlog modernizacije dočekan je od strane stručne javnosti vrlo negativno, i to sa dobrim razlogom, odnosno razlozima, od kojih su najbitniji sledeći : Avion J-22/NJ-22 je tehnološki i tehnički zastareo avion, koji je u svakom smislu kako konceptualno tako i praktično prevaziđen, pa je upitno da li bilo kakva modernizacija samo elektronskih sistema navigacije i naoružanja bitno povećala učinkovitost ove letelice; Godišta proizvodnje aviona J-22/NJ-22 su starija od godišta proizvodnje aviona G-4 i vrlo malo letelica je sa kraja osamdesetih odnosno početka devedesetih što bi za modernizaciju bila ciljna grupa; Avionima Orao već je produžen životni vek sa prvobitno predviđenih 25 na 30 godina službe; Letelice ovog tipa su poslednjih deceniju i po postale jako kompleksne i nerentabilne za eksploataciju zbog učestalih kvarova i nedostupnosti rezervnih delova, što je u mnogo navrata učinilo da je procenat ispravnosti ovih aviona u službi praktično jednak nuli. Avion J-22 iako zamišljen kao jurišnik zbog mnogih komplikacija u toku razvoja nikad nije dostigao ono što su njegovi konstruktori predvideli – njegov odnos potisak-masa je daleko ispod potrebnog za jurišni avion, a nosivost i radijus dejstva su za avion ove namene očajno mali. The modernization of the J-22 aircraft (and the two-seater NJ-22 variant) was presented to the public in April 2016 under the name “Eagle 2.0“. This modernization under the auspices of SDPR Yugioimport focuses more on navigation and sighting equipment as well as new weapon installations. Details, however, about structural changes to the aircraft and the specific expansion of the arsenal of ordnance have not been made public. This proposal of modernization was received very negatively by the expert public, for good reason, or reasons, the most important of which are the following: The J-22 / NJ-22 aircraft is an technologically and technically outdated aircraft, which is in every sense both conceptually and practically overcome, so it is questionable whether any modernization of electronic navigation and weapons systems alone has significantly increased the efficiency of this aircraft; Years of production of J-22 / NJ-22 aircraft are older than those of production of G-4 aircraft and very few aircraft are from the late 1980s and early 1990s, which would be a target group for modernization; The Eagle aircraft have already extended their life expectancy from the originally envisaged 25 to 30 years of service; In the last decade and a half, aircraft of this type have become very complex and unprofitable for exploitation due to frequent failures and unavailability of spare parts, which has made the serviceability of these planes practically zero at many times. Although conceived as an assault aircraft due to its many developmental complications, the J-22 never reached what its designers predicted - its thrust-to-mass ratio is far below what is needed for the assault aircraft, and the payload and radius of action for the aircraft for these purposes are desperately small.
