I'm a big fan of the Gladiator, I have to admit. I like the design and its possible use as a freighter. But I recently checked its statistics... do you think those are due for refurbishment once the model is completed? I haven't read any announcement of that, but this is what I'd expect.

I mean, compare it to the Gladius. The Gladius is tagged a light fighter, but still almost 50% larger in length and weight than the "rugged" torpedo bomber. Seriously, with its 14 meters it's just a little longer than a World War 2-era TBF Avenger. I would actually expect it to be slightly larger than a Hornet, maybe somewhere in the 30 m range.
