You have a firm grip an the realities of procurement. . .and what gets me is congress (and other DUmmines) when they cry about the high cost per jet and then cut the number of jets again and again and then are surprised that the cost per jet went up some more and they whine some more, never really realizing it is the R&D cost that remains fixed and a major portion of the cost.
