Also money saved on the initial project, ie a hull minus its armour, you need to factor in the cost of tooling and time to replace those bits... I purchased mine minus its armour and had to buy a strong rivet gun..something to heat the rivets, a mag drill and cutters to drill and countersink the plate work....then learn the dark art of riveting. Where as if I had paid more for a more complete project in the first instance it would have worked out the same in costs but a whole lot less work involved.
Canada is the place to go for carriers IMHO....they tend to weather better over there so they survive that bit longer out in the elements.
