>>8597043The Tamiya kit is the Italeri one. In 1/72 the (new) Revell one is supposedly quite a lot better. Given that the Revell kit is at best ok I wouldn't have very high hopes for Italeri's attempt.
Jumping up to 1/48 the Kittyhawk one appears to leave something to be desired as far as the fit goes. (Supposedly varying a lot ona kit-by-kit basis due to Kittyhawk not giving a fuck about consistent cooling rates.)

Trivia: the domestically built recon pod for Gripen has a unit cost of around 800 million SEK/95 million USD.
