Yep, that actually checks out. Which is interesting, because just the purchase costs are much closer together (40-50 vs. 90-110 million).
Off topic, but the f35 is still doing a lot better than older stealth planes, from everything I’ve heard. The wonders of a few trillion dollars of engineering work.
