A shitload less than an F35
How much is that worth in some really good air to ground missiles?
Planes are much more and have a smaller payload.
And aren't as good for close quarters.
They are good at destroying big areas though.
I wouldn't bring an Abrams to close quarters
In the fear of losing it
I'd instead use Humvees
The Abrams could sit on a hill a good amount back and support
An F-22 is about $678 million.
Fantastic
What does an F18 go for these days?
Probably a lot
Is the F15 line still open even?
Like 57 million.
I think the Japanese are still making F15Js
The F15 and F18 still had a lot of potential in their airframes
Think about being that one officer
In the Air Force
That had one of his F-22s shot down
We could outfit an entire squadron of F15s or F18s, kit and all, for the cost of one F35
Sigh
Welp, the 678 million dollar air craft got shot down, I guess it's time to eat some lead.
How much does a modern russian jet cost?
I need to know this
50-100 million.
For the Su-57.
And how much for an F-35?
About the same.
89-107 million depending on the type.
Jesus Christ these are expensive
You could lower the cost just by introducing competition.
Government would spend 4 billion dollars on a toilet seat cover.
True
But the sheer cost of some of these vehicles is amazing
Look at cost of the helmets
Please no
How much does a Standard issue American helmet cost?
Which branch?
Army?
The F-35 helmet is $400k each.
