Yes, they are still in production.
I saw a documentary a couple of months ago about it.
Amazing how they get the foam armor and rubber fuel tanks into the fuselage.
What's in the box? C'mon, what's in the boooox?

The difficulty is they want to do things to 95% and the documentation may only allow 85%...so they defer, delay, or don't do it. The Jedi Master

And me as well! Given what EEAH/CH let you do in the Apache 15 years ago I was happy, even though I preferred Jane's LB from almost 20 years ago.
They could easily do one that worked to that fidelity today and I'd be thrilled!

We need more of what IIRC the Hawk team are doing...start medium, then build on that and sell for more to the hardcore crowd. Those who are fine with FC-level modeling don't have to wait and hope there's a working "easy" mode, and the likelihood of it coming out are greater than relying on funding lasting till the hardcore one comes out.
