>Germany is going to pay 3.750.000.000 euros for 20 Eurofighters>187.500.000 euros each unitWhat is going on? How can these aircraft be so outrageously expensive?
The contract probably includes a lot more than just the aircraft. Why is this still surprising to people?
>>64364867It's more than just the planes you idiot
>>64364879They're brown and don't know any better
>>64364867I was going to say spare parts, but then I found out that the typhoon costs between $60,000 and $70,000 an hour to run. Fucking absurd. It probably just is that expensive.
>>64364867Finely crafted by hand. No detail left unnoticed.
>>64364907They should have bought Gripens.
>>64364867Have you seen its development costs? Eurofighter has been a disaster. Not as costly as the F-35, but same story.
>>64364867This includes development costs, worker training and tooling for T5 aircraft.
They're specialised electronic warfare versions
corruption
>>64364867How many years of maintenance are included? Are they predicting the price of fuel used during this time? Are munitions part of that budget? What about training for personnel? Is part of that total covering research and development, or factory tooling? Could you have googled any of this before posting?Please think before you post. You could save yourself a lot of embarrassment.
>>64364879because normies don't know what TCO is, since it's not a factor for them buying a toasterbecause journalists are retards and can't convey the data
Just buy a 5th gen at that point, or just get more F_16s for retards to burn flight hours in.
>>64364891Browns genuinely think buying fighter jets have a fixed price for every unit like groceries
