Your article touches on just where it differentiates from those options, though. >Comparatively, Scorpion offers speed over the twin-turboprops and simplicity versus the trainers, which are structurally optimized to withstand high G forces in order to prepare pilots for the F-22 or F-35. And, although some parties may want to recast Predator and Reaper unmanned aircraft for air and border patrols in the future, these UAVs remain blocked from operating in most of the domestic airspace. I'd also be curious to know what percentage of that price tag is made up by the modern avionics and datalink systems that you get out of the box with the Scorpion.
