Slam on brakes accordingly. A GAO report put the price of a single F-22 at $200m with no parts, weapons or servicing, if production is capped at the current rate, for a total of 70 aircraft. Which, if they do want the F-35, it might well be. Weirder things have happened ... they did scrap Crusader, after all. Matt
