If you're not going to be participating in the Cost Restricted Tournament, then you should just level it up. Sure, you're going to lose extra credits by having the next level researched, but the XFA-27 doesn't just magically become level 7 once you have 25 million; you'll have to upgrade it at some point, also it's fun seeing it slowly become more and more agile.
