Whoohoo! Atleast better sya doon sa regular F-18. Doon sa STC it cost about 4k. 300+ more expensive.

Define "model manufacturer cruelty" ---

Spend a good portion of a year reworking, correcting and detailing a 1/32 Revell prototype F-18, update it to FA-18A standards, fold the wings, and years later Academy comes out with one ready to build.
