Denmark plans to purchase new US F-35 fighter jets
2016-05-13
Wait a while, the refurbs will be cheap...
The Danish government plans to purchase 27 new US Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II, also known as the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter jets, the Danish TV2 broadcaster said on Wednesday, citing unnamed sources.

Earlier in the day, the local Denmark Radio (DR) station said the F-35s have been recently mentioned in Denmark as the most preferred jets to replace the currently used military aircraft.

The cost of the F-35 fighter is reportedly estimated at $107.5 million and the total amount for their purchase could cost between $307.4 billion and $460.9 billion.

#6  Hell you could buy 1/2 of a f-22, available in 2030 for that price and keep the the 80486 line open to boot! Let's be, even smarter and reopen the Scooter Line, I mean even with inflation they'd be what 800K a pop?
