Amazing from 40,000 to a a dozen still around. I wonder what would it cost just to take the blue print and build some new ones with updated avionics and engine. It is hard to believe it would be close to $21 MM a copy.

Dunno about the price, but they have some enthusiasts here in the US building Me-262 replicas so authentic that Messerschmitt (in Germany)is reportedly assigning Werk No.s to them. (Use modern jet engines I believe.)

Here’s a clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8HblYdUUcg

Search Me-262 replica for others.

For the Strumovik to live again (as a replica) will cost $$$, talent, and time.
