In my country, players have to pay more than 80$ if they want to buy modules on Steam which forces them to use standalone (not that I'm complaining). But some countries can buy the most widely used aircrafts like F-16 or F/A-18C for extremely cheap like Turkey. Even though on official discord it was claimed the prices will be updated every three months, I couldn't see it in practice. Is it due to some marketing strategy or simply forgotten? Because this system is unfair to a lot of people and begs to be abused.

F/A-18C base price 61% cheaper, also gets +30% discount regularly which drops the price to 396 TRY (21 USD)
Why are modules on Turkish Steam store so cheap?

F-16C, exact same pricing with F/A-18C
Also note that Valve gets a huge cut with every sale, further decreasing the potential profit.
