This claim is weird. Quiet periods that I am aware of usually involve a company filing for security registration and last for 40 days after a stock starts trading. But this company IPOed in March 2021.
I am not sure whether you have mixed up information and/or are just repeating some false nonsense from one of the many stock discussion pages on the internet.
This information should be easily verifiable. Can you point to the source of your information?

So 425 is totally different from 10,000
So that order was a potential 10,000 as if was that amount order there would have paid a good amount
So looks like it’s initial order base so many at a time think arrivals are ready for aircrafts yet 
It’s not different, there was no time frame for the 10000 vehicles. They will arrive as and when they’re produced, considering they’re not due until Q3, 425 this year is about right for production.

There should be a realistic timeframe. If the 1000 units are spread over 20 years, that won’t make the company rich. An I seriously doubt where the other customers are. Canoo are at least promoting the van for individual buyers. It’s actually weird: Arrival wants to use microfactories but serves big clients only.

That’s the point I wanted to make very good wording 
Do please look at the bigger picture… don’t underestimate the commercial vehicle/ van market:
Blockquote
There are currently around 4.5 million vans in use in the UK [1], and the fleet has grown 50 per cent since 2009, twice the growth-rate of the car market, and the new light commercial vehicle sector is now worth £10 billion a year in the UK

That’s just in the UK…& includes older vans OTR, not just new sales:
A 10,000 order is a drop in the ocean
Remember ARVL are building from the ground up… and not simply turning a standard van into an electric van.
They need time to get the products & production right.
You can also pre order one on their website if you want

And wait maybe how long?
if I order something
I’d like a timescale especially if it’s made to order
I love the idea and the vans but just doesn’t seem to have the legs, and how can they make vans or order quick enough with them robots

Arrival are trying to climb two very difficult mountains at the same time.
Building a new commercial vehicle manufacture isn’t easy especially if you’re looking to target two markets that have historically been served by separate companies (busses & vans). This will require a huge after sales network and while electrical vehicle have less moving parts there is plenty to go wrong.

What Tesla have shown the industry is that when you start with a blank piece of paper and a the next generation of cars you can truly be a vertically integrated manufacturer as opposed to an assembler. Elon love to defy convention and with Tesla he has from making many parts in house, not using dealer to sell cars, developing software only upgrades … but the biggest similarity is the production line. This just highlights how much arrival are biting off here IF this work, they still might end up being the company that proves the theory only for other to iterate on their findings.

For me, the driver-first design ethos is important. Happy and healthy workers are productive workers etc. A lot of people happy to short/tear down the stock as if Arrival are Nikola - a proven sham no less with no product or production - and with a share price to match.
My main worry with ARVL is not their strategy per se, bit they spread themselves too thin with multiple products. I don’t see them as another Tesla, they are going after a very tired market of firms bolting in electric drivetrains, when they get to market this will be evident, and is probably why so many want them to fail. But it is all down to their microfactory model as being more than hype.

Fair assessment. I think the share price will continue struggle until we have hard evidence that their cell-based production process actually works in the real world. If it does then the possibilities are enormous. They could become a global player almost overnight in the bus market and would be able to leverage huge cost advantages. With a few exception, bus manufacturing is traditionally more about low-volume assembly from medium sized domestic companies with limited levels of automation. As you say though, it’s a big if for now and Im holding off from adding any more shares until they have hit a few more of their production milestones and we get an idea of what their gross margins will look like.

There’s definate progress towards production, they’ve just moved their composite factory to a new facility in Bicester which is more than twice the size of the original,
