I seem to remember that Vmca/Vmcg was a bit of an issue with the MRA4's larger engines and the small fin/rudder? That might be why BEagle states the porcine-like handling...

...I also remember that 2 out of 3 flap brackets cracked on flight test. Again, that would likely invoke porcine-like handling!

Anyway, I agree, let's move on as that ship has sailed to the great razor blade in the sky. So will it be P-8 or the Nipponese Wonder Jet?
