"I cannot believe they can't get the costs below this. Wow."

The 747/400 starts at $216 million, per http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/74633.

I'd rather fight a war with the F-22, wouldn't you?

It depends. The 747 could certainly deliver a lot more ordinance under current circumstances.

True, but it is still hard to get my head around it. Actually the only threat to an F-22 is another F-22.

Good heavens, if a 747/400 starts at $216 million, then a Raptor at $140 million, considering what it can do, almost seems like a bargain!
