I read we're buying 88 of those things at $200 million+ a pop? Not sure that's a great idea.

Some of the planes, but all of the maps!

Not sure why it's asking you to sign in. Anyway, there are a few other articles about this. I guess you've found another.

Unfortunately it's sort of difficult to discuss this without politics.

No sign in required for me.

Bear in mind that figure is not for the jets, it's for EVERYTHING including training, maintenance, parts, etc, over probably a decade+ also minus the outgoing CF-18s and their associated expenses plus they'll probably end up sold to 3rd parties that don't mind second hand fighter jets (likely with maintenance and training expenses tacked on, etc)

Tossing out empty crayon boxes would be easier.

I'm looking at a bunch of videos about the F-35 and reading articles about it. I think all I know is I don't know enough.

 

We need an F-35 in DCS so I can properly study the matter.

This is the sensible conclusion to arrive at and this is the correct solution.
