When I watched the video (being a Crew Chief) my first thought was about ground equipment and servicing equipment. Will this thing work off a -60 or a Hobart? I'm sure it has some sort of JFS or APU. Will it run off a Hydraulic cart. Probably have to add ground equipment to the $5M price tag.

If an Su-27 is too costly for you, maybe you could try a MiG-21 (from $50,000 - $200,000)

Nice paint job.

The comments made under that link are a 'hoot'. $600k for a MiG-25 sounds good too.

Forget spares, how much does it cost to fill the tank!

You got that right, fuel sure isn't cheap on this side of the big pond- no matter what flavor it is! Confused

Hourly cost on the SU-27 is $18K-$23K, depending on who you talk to.
