To fellow translators. Please note that there are some exclamations in Japanese that ends with a ? but in English context they would make more sense with a !
Japanese uses a whole new set or rules in grammar and punctuation.Of course、perfection is an impossible ideal. However, improvements are always available.
Doesn't ending the sentence in じゃないですか (As opposed to just じゃない) indicate incredulity in regards to the subject that came before it? In such a case, wouldn't a sentence that uses a question mark would be more appropriate? Otherwise, if you really wish to not use a question mark, adding something like "isn't it" at the end, sans question mark, would also work.
Otherwise, it just doesn't feel as if the じゃないですか is coming through, as "Wait, this is the one that flies!!" is just a straight statement of fact.

Well, ultimately it sort of depends on how the accent is pitched (pun unintended) on desuka (LLH __/ vs. LLL ___ ), but I'm reading it the same way as you do too (LLH).
That is, I believe Sazanami is being incredulous there, which can either be realized in the translation either as a simple interrogative, or by appending a tag question at the end and stressing the tag "isn't it". A simple declarative sentence seems inadequate here, even if "flies" is stressed.
Forget that, why does he have a rocket launcher and why did he just toss it to Sazanami in the first place?!
Oh, come on! It's not his fault that a military base suddenly became a damn day care center!
Besides, this is a girl that can summon 5-inch guns and oxygen torpedoes out of thin air. Rocket Launchers are the least of their worries.
Ah.Yaaay♪
It's a Nissan March♪Wai-!?It's gonna explode! Exploooode!Hey! If you're gonna play around, get outside!STOP IIIIT!!
Don't come over here!!Poi♪Wait, this is the one that flies !!
GTFO!The Panzerfaust-3 is manufactured under license in Japan by IHI Aerospace, which was Nissan's aeronautic division that became its own separate entity after Renault partnered up with the automotive division in the early 2000s.
Because of the maker and the cost, JSDF troops nicknamed the Panzerfaust-3 as the "Flying Nissan March"
