Actually, the incremental cost for any *additional* planes is $120 million per... the current cost per aircraft of the 183 being purchased, including development costs, is about $340 million each. Ouch! Blame Congress for constantly cutting the procurement goal... it's not like development costs can drop if you buy fewer.

Wow, that's some real money.

There cannot be a lot of export customers for this bird either. Maybe Japan...
