It looks absolutely fantastic, I am no expert but in my opinion you are way to modest Paul =)

Watching this video brought to mind an interesting bit of documentation I ran across recently. The air show was in 2009 and this document is an analytical report submitted to the minister of defense in <st1:city><st1lace>Canberra</st1lace></st1:city> (May, 1998) on replacing the RAAF F/A-18. It is quite interesting and some what pertinent to the conversation (I think) since this is way out of my realm. :salute:

Paul, thanks for posting that link and I've already added it to my library of technical info. One thing I've always enjoyed is the fairly open sources inside Australia's Defense circles on assessments/comparisons and intelligence "gouge" on potential threats. I find their reports as very thoughtful & thorough.

Also, as noted above, you're quite modest about your model building skills. Your work looks fantastic!
