Yeah right! They made SUCH a good job of the F-2 didn't they?
No. But I bet they learn't where they went wrong. They are tenacious and resourcefull and they'll get there in the end. Their first bikes wern't much cop but you see more Hondas than Nortons these days. Be interesting to compare this to the MRA4; does the Kawa have an indiginous mission system? And I understand that the MPA design will form the basis for a C-17 lookalike.

So, we gonna invite them to the next Fincastle? (Yes, I know .....) Or maybe a JMC?
