So I just re-watched the Vol2 trailer. A lot of the scenes in there have already come to pass in the last three episodes, and scenes with Blake and Sun running from one giant robot, Yang and Neptune driving towards another, seem like they'll be coming up soon (seeing as both duos just headed out at the same time Weiss and Ruby did). Likely most of the action will show up in Ep5 as the mid-volume special, like Ep8 was for Vol1.

So, although Blake and Sun should be headed out right now to the White Fang rally, that doesn't give the White Fang a whole lot of time to steal a Paladin that was only just announced to the public. Maybe they have a mole high up in the Atlas military that was able to send them a copy of the plans, or maybe what they have isn't truly a Paladin at all, but just a similar model.
