Remind me how many $billion the development portion of the Comanche was projected to overrun the original budget when cancelled? Wasn't the projected recurring unit cost $70m in 2005 dollars? You do make a point how will SB produce a more complex design in 2025 for under $70m apiece? What about FARA? How is the Raider X going to be cheaper than the 2005 Comanche? I think the goal for FARA is under $30m apiece in 2025 dollars? Thats a long way from $70m.
