I was just sitting here and wondering, because of the expected costs of the Superhornet at a ridiculously $380 some million per jet for 12 years of service.

If we went back to Lockheed Martin and said, hey maaaaaannnnn we're buying 18 Super Hornets for 12 years at $7 million bucks. With delivery in 2020.

What can you do.

I'm betting Lockheed Martin would probably fall over themselves to get us 18 F-35's by 2020 for less then the Super Hornets.
