I think you are wrong.it costs $140 million.in 350 you can buy two and half f22.

Senate Votes to End Production of F-22 Raptor

Posted by Christopher Preble

As I have written previously, President Obama and the members of Congress who voted to kill funding for the F-22 did the right thing.

The Washington Post reports:

The Senate voted Tuesday to kill the nation’s premier fighter-jet program, embracing by a 58 to 40 margin the argument of President Obama and his top military advisers that more F-22s are not needed for the nation’s defense and would be a costly drag on the Pentagon’s budget in an era of small wars and counterinsurgency efforts.

While this vote marks a step in the right direction, the fight isn’t over. The F-22’s supporters in the House inserted additional monies in the defense authorization bill, and the differences will need to be reconciled in conference. But the vote for the Levin-McCain amendment signals that Congress will take seriously President Obama and Secretary Gates’ intent to bring some measure of rationality to defense budgeting.

The Raptor’s whopping price tag— nearly $350 million per aircraft counting costs over the life of the program— and its poor air-to-ground capabilities always undermined the case for building more than the 187 already programmed.

In the past week, Congress has learned more about the F-22’s poor maintenance record, which has driven the operating costs well above those of any comparable fighter. And, of course, the plane hasn’t seen action over either Iraq or Afghanistan, and likely never will.

Beyond the F-22 and the Joint Strike Fighter, we need a renewed emphasis in military procurement on cost containment. This can only occur within an environment of shrinking defense budgets. Defense contractors who are best able to meet stringent cost and quality standards will win the privilege of providing our military with the necessary tools, but at far less expense to the taxpayers. And those who cannot will have to find other business.

Who are 'you', meaning the countries listed, that 'your' opinions about the F-22 should matter to US? Here is the plan...That we keep 'you', meaning the countries listed, in the dark about the F-22's capabilities, like how we kept the world, which include 'you', in the dark about the F-117 until it was too late. Very low radar observability changed the battlespace equation to our favor. So either 'you', meaning the countries listed, accept the status quo or spend extraordinary money to either build 'your' own very low radar observability aircrafts or buy them from someone who may or most likely may not be as good as US in building this type of aircraft.
