What do you guys think of this aircraft? Basically it's a civilian private jet-powered aircraft designed to look and maneuver like a military fighter plane.

Personally I think it is very cool, I have always wondered why there weren't any civilian planes designed to fly and maneuver like the military ones.

They also have a military trainer version.

Reminds me of the BD-10. They shut down kit production partially due to FAA crackdown of the 51% builder rule and mostly from an accident where a fin ripped off (not sure which) and caused loss of control and the death of the test pilot.

NTSB report concluded that it was a design flaw.

Fast = Dangerous + Expensive
