Looks very impressive so far, with very neat plastic surgery!  :wub: :wub: This is something that I've thought of doing, but have never got round to. Is it going to be an actual Ye-2 or a Ye-2 as it might have looked if it had been selected for production and developed further?

Thanks a lot, Gang!

From my part:

Ye-2 along with its real world counterpart. May look sleek and thin but it is heavily arnmed: 2 NR-30 and 2 R-3 Atoll
