“hundreds of billions of dollars on that program only to end up with 21 aircraft, each with a $2 billion price tag”
Must have been using Military Math. ($2B x 21 = $42B, not “hundreds of billions of dollars”)

Does that price tag per plane equal the total cost of development, manufacturing, and materials divided by the total number of planes?
