I would expect ICOM to release their IC9700 2m/70cm/23cm SDR rig and perhaps Yaesu will have an operational FTDX101D and Kenwood may officially release their TS890S for sale both of these have been shown non-operational at Dayton & Friedrichshafen.
I look forward to hear what else is new at the world largest ham radio event.
Yeeees!, it has been announced just a year back in Ham Fair 2017 and haven’t got any news about it. Me too expecting the following announcement and update. Will see any info about it and will let you know after Ham Fair.

Well the IC-9700 has now arrived in the UK (in small numbers) - all being well mine should arrive on Tuesday in time for this month 2m UKAC. If the WX is not too bad I will be /P near to Cleeve Hill G/CE-001 (but not in a manner that counts for SOTA).
