Why does Lockheed get a cut of anything when it was mine and yours tax dollars that the DOD spends to pay for the full size bird anyway? I know that they invest some in the R&D initially but they do it to turn a profit and we invest our tax dollars in the R&D too. They don't share the profits with the taxpayer. We should not have to pay a penny for the license of replicas of military aircraft that we purchase with tax dollars. Horizon should have changed the lines of the model somewhat, named it something other than raptor 22, laughed at Lockheeds "license requirements" and people will still have bought it based simply on its jet like looks alone.
