Based on what we have the Indominus Rex can give us a clue. Lets look at its DNA, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Giganotsaurus, Therizinosaurus, Majungasaurus, Rugops, Carnotaurus Velociraptor, Cuttle Fish, Tree Frog, Pit Viper
Now lets analyze it. These are the dinosaurs that the Indoraptor would be made of :

http://www.prehistoric-wildlife.com/images/species/d/deinonychus-size.jpg Velociraptor (This is the actual size of the JW raptors)
Now that might not be all. There is a posibility that it had allosaurus DNA instead of Giganotosaurus DNA. This would make it much stronger and deadlier, just like it is. Now the freakish think is that it can climb. It might have Gecko DNA instead of Cuttlefish DNA since it can ambush by climbing, so there is no need for it to camelflouge. Therizinosaurus DNA might be the reason it can walk on 4 legs or bend on all 4s.
This should be what the Indoraptor is completely made of
Indoraptor = Velocraiptor, Majungasaurus, Rugops, Allosaurus, Therizinosaurus, /Gecko, Fire Salamander

I've had a little look, but I confess I haven't dug too deeply into trying to answer this. I was hoping for a better and more succinct answer here.
The question is this. What is the Indoraptor a hybrid of? Is it as the name suggests a combo of the Indominus and a raptor? Which makes no sense as I'm sure you can work out.
So what then is it?
So I was looking through the genome profiles in jwe2 and I came across the indoraptor. I was reading the description and at the last part and it said that it can camouflage before attacking prey. Of course in none of the games or movies can it camouflage, so maybe it was referencing a future version on it? Let me know what you think
That's pretty interesting! It could possibly be a homage to the "Indo" aspect of the animal implying it has the cuttlefish genes of its predecessor.
Equally, it could be more of a raptor trait suggesting that it uses it's natural colours to blend into environments for hunting (using dark skin colouration to hunt at night). Similar to how the Tiger Stripe raptors on TLW were suited to hunting in long grass.
Everyone seems to forget the important factors about the Indoraptor. It was created with the DNA of the Indominus Rex & Velociaraptor 4000 DNA. It was revealed in both JWE 1, & in JWFK Deleted Scenes...
The Indoraptor: the most dangerous creature to ever walk the earth. A beast of the future, made of pieces from the past. Every cell of its body was designed for hunting and killing.
The Indoraptor is the dinosaur antagonist of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. It is a ferocious creature that was designed by Henry Wu and is trained for killing.
But what would it take to defeat it. We will imagine this takes place in some arena designed similar to a Hunger Games arena. The team to defeat it can only consist of animals that would realistically work together, so the Raptor pack would work, but not Rexy and the Spino. If this post is against the rules of the SubReddit, than I will post this on r/whowouldwin. Thanks for reading.
Now rewatching fallen kingdom I figured out that yes in fact the indoraptor we see was a prototype it was the indominus Rex rebuilt with less bones and a different body structure trained to kill anything that had a red laser dot on it (Not my art)
According to the newest Amber Society video, Indoraptor has Abelisaurus DNA. This was never EVER mentioned in the movies, marketing or merch, but I guess it makes sense for Universal.
Indoraptor and Indominus are pretty much an amalgamation of the entire abelisauridae at this point.
-
Indominus - Carnotaurus, Majungasaurus, Rugops, Pycnonemosaurus, Quilmesaurus, and Viavenator.
Indoraptor - Carnotaurus, Abelisaurus, Velociraptor.
-
I still think Rugops (size and crest) and maybe Pycnonemosaurus (for the size) are the most viable candidates to be new abelisaurids in JWE2.
Recently rewatched them all again getting ready for Dominion. I've been waiting for it since 2018. My assessment of the two is the Indominus Rex is an emotional killing machine and the Indoraptor as actually just evil. The Indominus Rex will go out of it's way to kill you, but the Indoraptor wants to kill you but when it can it wants to terrify you. For example it could have just killed Wheatley and got it over with, but it wanted him to be scared of the fact that he was going to be eaten, it didn't just kill him, it let him live for a few seconds before it killed him and did so with a terrifying grin. Next if it was bent on just killing it could have continued to attack Claire and Owen, especially considering it had Claire pinned with a claw in her. It instead went for the terrified screaming girl and when she was defenseless it creeped up to her slowly and didn't get ready to attack until she started to scream. It could have just killed he in a fraction of the time, but it wanted to be a horror monster for a minute. There was a few instances of the Indominus Rex not instantly killing, but it seemed more of an ego thing than a need for fear. For example it tried to make Blue and the others kill Owen, Claire, and the boys instead of dying it itself, but it didn't seem to do things illogically, just unemotionally. Maybe the sociopathy of the Indominus Rex lead to the Indoraptor being a psychopath that preys on fear, maybe that particular Indoraptor was kinda unstable, but either way that dinosaur would go out of it's way to kill you just because it doesn't want you to live. If you escape the Indominus Rex you're good, it won't try to hunt you down later, but the Indoraptor will hunt you down until one of you is dead. The only thing about the Indoraptor it either doesn't have the ability to camouflage, modulate infrared output, and sense thermals. Maybe the Indoraptor didn't know that it could camouflage, but it seemed to be looking for Owen, Claire, and Maisie when the lights were out, which suggests that it couldn't sense thermals like it's predecessor. Overall the Indoraptor is absolutely terrifying and I rather just get eaten alive by the merciless Indominus Rex than be stalked and tortured by the sadistic Indoraptor.
Quick, give me some classic movie monsters. Well, you got Frankenstein's Monster, Dracula, Creature from the Black Lagoon, King Kong, Godzilla.
Alright, so what do all of them have in common? Well, they're all frightening, but they're also tortured and tragic creatures with a dark past - or they're directly misunderstood.
Now, I don't particularly like this whole hybrid concept that the first two Jurassic World movies focused on, but I think that if you're going to make a movie about a genetic experiment theme park monster whose only purpose in life is to shock a bunch of desensitized parkgoers, then the story about that monster should be tragic.
Now, the indoraptor from Fallen Kingdom could have been a perfect tortured monster with a sad, bitter ending to his short life. The movie already has everything going for it in this regard. You already have a horrifying, broken dinosaur that has spent his entire life in a 2x2 cage being prodded by scientists PLUS a climatic third act in a gothic mansion.
It seems like the writers knew exactly what they wanted to do with the indoraptor character, but because of time constraints, studio meddling or a lack of creativity, they just weren't able to execute on the indoraptor's full potential.
Here are three things they should have done.
Restore that wonderful deleted scene of the indoraptor being tortured in his cage
Did you know we were supposed to get a scene of the indoraptor being mistreated by a group of bored guards with cattle prods? One guard in particular would really get into this act of blatant animal abuse and would have this big smile on him while tasing the indoraptor.
The indoraptor, slowly getting up after being tased, would turn to the man, imitating his smile with a twisted smile of his own. This would horrify the guards.
So when the indoraptor smiles before killing Wheatley, it's not because the writers are total idiots, it's because he's actually IMITATING the one type of human contact he was familiar with, just with him doing the torturing this time.
It would have been perfect! It would have made the indoraptor into a much more multifaceted villain and someone that the audience would perhaps be able to fill some tiny bit of empathy with.
There are a bunch of other deleted scenes that would have helped build the indoraptor's character that definitely should have been included. But I think this is the most important one.
Focus on the indoraptor's relationship with Maisie
Some fans have already speculated that there might be some sort of deeper connection between the indorator and Maisie.
I would have elaborated on that relationship in the movie because I think there's a lot of potential in that sort of innocent child / beast setup. It could be that Maisie shares some DNA with the indoraptor, or that they're tied in some sort of genetic symbiotic co-dependency, like Maisie needs blood transfusions from the raptor to survive. Something weird like that.
Or alternatively, the indoraptor could simply have imprinted on Maisie.
However, the important part is that when the Indoraptor chases the main cast in the third act, he shouldn't want to kill Maisie. He's just trying to get to her, and take her from the other humans who seemed to want to steal her away from him. Besides, this would explain why this hyper-intelligent super predator seems unable to catch up with and kill a small child.
Have the mercenries kill the indoraptor, not Blue
Do we really need Blue to kill another hybrid? Do we really need this poor velociraptor to come in and clean shit up every time the humans mess up?
Now, I would still have Blue and Indoraptor fighting, but I would also have the fight end before either of the dinosaurs are dead. Rather, I would write it so that their fight is interrupted, or that they're in some sort of stalemate, when the mercenaries show up. Having regrouped and brought some bigger guns, they now attack the indoraptor.
The indoraptor makes a desperate attempt to break out - or alternatively, it could attack the humans directly. We could have the indoraptor break through a gate of some sort, only to be eventually mowed down by the surrounding soldiers from some safe distance. Or possibly, he could be trying to get to Maisie. Either way, the indoraptor's sacrifice would have given the main cast an Blue a chance to escape through the gates. As they leave, the camera pans back to linger on the indoraptor's body as he draws his last breath - killed by the same hands that created him.
Now, I'm not a writer and it doesn't have to go down exactly like that. But I think having the indoraptor be killed by the same people who created him would make him would make the ending a little more bittersweet and complex. His death would have instilled a much stronger and more ambivalent response in the moviegoers.
...
Anyway, that's it. That's what I would have done differently, at least some of the things. Either way, I feel the indoraptor they introduced had a ton of unrealized potential and that using this character, they could have told a poignant and haunting story about an abused animal turning into a monstrous man-eater.
PS:
I should add that I don't think that this necessarily would have made Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom a better Jurassic movie. My version of Fallen Kingdom would have been darker and weirder and have little in common with Spielberg's family-friendly and optimistic original. In reality, I would have rather them make a completely different movie.
But if you're going to make Fallen Kingdom, I figure that at least with these changes, the second Jurassic World movie could have been an interesting and divisive entry into the Jurassic franchise. (Rather than just a forgettable one).
As we know, the Indoraptor is a male, and even in the first Jurassic World Evolution game, it was stated that all Indoraptors made are male, but the recent trailer for Jurassic World Evolution 3 says the previously generated dinosaurs were all female. Did they just so happen to forget the Indoraptor was a male, or was it just a general statement for the rest of the dinosaurs? Because also, one of the spinoceratops is also male, I'm pretty sure. Granted, it was a baby, so we can't really tell at that age, but whenever you pick that skin for Evolution 3, is it going to have male features, or is it just going to be a female? The Indominus Rex and Scorpius Rex don't exactly have this problem because they were female, and there was only one or two at most, but back to the Indoraptor, assuming they forgot that the Indoraptor is a male, it would absolutely be hilarious if we had two male Indoraptors in the game where one is just listed as a female despite it actually being the male's design. Either that or they just don't give the hybrid sexual dimorphism at all, but if they work to, I can think of some ideas, at least for like the Indominus Rex, Scorpius Rex, and Indoraptor. The Indominus Rex and Scorpius Rex's quills for males would just be longer, while for females, the Indoraptor would just have shorter quills, but that's assuming they give the hybrid sexual dimorphism at all, although I wouldn't mind being in a timeline where we just have two male Indoraptors just because I think it'll be funny. (Note I know the hybrids won't be able to breed, most likely, but still they can give them sexual dimorphism regardless of that, although admittedly probably the best case scenario would be they just leave the designs alone.)
In Jurassic World, we are introduced to this new, created version of a raptor and it is an aggressive killing machine. My theory is that the Indo-raptor is actually... capable of compassion.
In the movie we are introduced to this new raptor by its creators who sing its praises for its potential to be weaponized and its ability (kind of) to be controlled by the laser. However, its creators admit that they do not know everything about this new species, even going to far as to call it a prototype. They are adamant that they need Blue to finish their research on this new raptor. We are later shown a video of how unusual of a dinosaur Blue is as Chris Pratt demonstrates weakness in front of one of Blue’s siblings by crouching and whimpering. It attempts to attack him. When he does this in front of Blue, she approaches him cautiously and appears to try to comfort him.
During the part of the movie where we see the Indo-raptor in action, it is constantly being provoked. The military man attempts to tranquilize it and pull its tooth, so it attacks. When it escapes and encounters humans, it is met with loud screaming, and running and is eventually shot at. This whole time, the raptor is very viscous and apparently ruthless, and we assume that this is because it is a killing machine.
However, when the young girl escapes the glass enclosure and runs into her room to hide under the blanket. (As a young child would) we see the raptor behaving completely differently than we have seen in the past. We know that it is an incredible tracker, and this young girl is clearly audible in spite of her efforts to remain quiet, but instead of pouncing on her and ripping her to shreds, the raptor cautiously approaches the whimpering and cowering girl. It reaches out its claw toward her slowly, and we assume this is meant to harm her, but we do not know that for sure as our hero Chris Pratt enters the room, Guns a’blazin.
My theory is that the raptor had never heard weakness before, only aggression or attempts to control it, and if given the chance, would have attempted to comfort the girl, based on its uncharacteristic behavior and the girls evident display of weakness. The poor Indo-raptor never knew any better.
I have been in deep, deep debates with my friends over which of these behemoths, these killers are cooler. I believe the I-REX is MUCH cooler because it is big and is white. It looks cool and it has many capabilities that he gathered from dino DNA. Indoraptor is alright... but he is not as intimidating in my opinion. I think that because the Indoraptor is gray, it does not stand out as much. And the laser pointer-kill thing? That is such a scapegoat of a bad guy. The I-Rex, on the other hand, can camouflage and has BIG CLAWS and TEETH! The Indoraptor only has kind-of scary claws, but not scary teeth.. If the conversation was on who would win in a fight, I am not very sure. It would be very close. I-Rex has the size advantage, so if it were to us its strength, it could simply crush the Indorapter under him. The Indoraptor, on the flip side of things, is more nimble and quick-moving than the I-Rex. Using this advantage, the Indoraptor could theoretically take small bites, or pot-shots, out of the I-Rex until is dies. It we want to go one step further into the discussion, we can discuss whether or not the Indoraptor has the guy with the laser pointer with him. If the Indoraptor is getting commands from the laser pointer guy, they would probably out-tactic and easily disassemble I-Rex. Without a laser pointer, the Indoraptor would be at a more even level. The last thing we need to discuss before making a plausible conclusion, is sentience. If you remember from Jurassic World (2015), when the I-Rex escapes from it's enclosure, the security guards find the Dinosaurs tracker! The reason this is important is that after this reveal, they say that the I-Rex remembered where it was put in. This is enough evidence to assume sentience with the I-Rex. Now to the Indoraptor. The Indoraptor does not do anything on free will at all. It attacks targets that are assigned by a signal. Why would the corporation that created the Indoraptor give it free thought? You want a soldier that follows every command. Therefore I can deduce that the Indoraptor was designed without sentience in mind. A lifeless killer. This alone gives the I-Rex the upperhand, and dare I say, the victory. If this is the grounds we go to, by the matter of knowledge and confidence, I can confidently say that the I-Rex would win a fight against the Indoraptor.
