It's a 1:120 scale model, but doesn't look too out of place alongside single-seat fighters. Once again, I'm looking at the Finnish border conflicts with this one.

So, the scale seems to fit good enough. How much did you paid for the model?

True, only one pilot. Two other crew to main the defensive armament (like the bombardier-navigator). The aircraft, bought on eBay, ran about $15 CDN, which was then about $11.95 USD. I acknowledge it's a bit much to pay, but unlike a lot of the Shapeways and AIM aircaft, it's painted and ready to go.
