Rick Griewski Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 I really want the B variant. Is that not the “jump jet”?

thierry laurent Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 Happy for the Raptor lovers. KiwiZac, KUROK and Out2gtcha 3
Out2gtcha Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 Did not get a chance to get super close to it when we saw it at EAA AV when last we were there but two things stood out: 1. - It was the LOUDEST @#$%ing thing I have ever heard since I was a little kid and saw the Concorde at Oshkosh back in the 80s. 2. - It was H U G E. It was in a heritage flight with a P-47, an F-86 and a P-51 and it utterly dwarfed them all. This model is going to be very big. scvrobeson, Uncarina, Rockie Yarwood and 3 others 6
Violator1991 Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 Yeah... I wonder how the price will match the size

Dandiego Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 I wonder about the price as well. Absolutely I want one but cost will come into play. Based on Jetmads other products I would "guess" that this will be well north of $200. I will need to see price before I can make the pre-sale commitment. Dan frank83 1
mattcour Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 I was expecting a modern jet after the X-3 and the FH-1 and my guess was either a Rafale or Gripen but the F-22 is just fine for a jet guy like myself. I love it, great subject. My price guess is around $250. Preorder price of the Viggen was $192 and the F-22 is bigger than that and with the price of everything going up I'd be surprised to see anything less. Dandiego, frank83 and Violator1991 3
frank83 Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 The Raptor's cockpit instrument panel is quite visible. The kit should better have a Quinta style cockpit. KiwiZac and mattcour 2
Zola25 Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 Yeah I Would guess around $250 as well... Which is not too bad.. If it wasn't for the fact that they keep announcing stuff i really want to build I really enjoyed building the Viggen so I will surely get one of these. Maybe Even do My first In-Flight display. The F-22 doesnt exactly look very elegant on the grund in my opinion /Niels
Violator1991 Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 Not very elegant on the ground I'm happy to respectfully disagree Bekim, KiwiZac, frank83 and 2 others 5
frank83 Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 I hope to heal the battle damage I've been given by the Lancaster until this comes On the ground or in-flight... It looks definitely gorgeous!
