I’ve looked over all the photos.
There a a lot of things wrong with this “fighter”.
First, its too small. It is about 1/2 scale.
Second, The engine intakes and exhaust are tiny, even for the 1/2 scale size. It would barely produce enough power to take off.
Third, the canopy glass is wavy, looks like plastic. Also there isn’t sufficient room to close the canopy withthe pilot seated.
Fourth, no lock down hooks on the canopy mechanism. Further, the hold-open mechanism is offset on one side, not centered, and looks like it is just a stick to wedge it open.
Fifth, no HUD.
Sixth, Aerodynamically, this thing is a mess. The Canards are fixed, not fully pivoting (like all supersonic control surfaces). The canards are inline with the rear wings; the resulting flow over the rear wings would be disruptive. The chord of the rear wing appears to be incredibly thick, only suitably for bi-plane speeds. And what of those bent-down tips? You only see that in the movies.
Seventh, the landing gear is almost certainly borrowed from one of their F-5s, but no apparent retraction capability exist for the rear assemblies.
I’m very confident saying that this is a prop made out of plywood, sheet metal and plastic.

If an F 18 flew by it, it would cause this plane to burst apart. Lets see if it makes it to the Air Show in England. If they are thinking of flying over Israel, they better have a damn good supply of pilots.
