Pretty much on time and on budget was what I had read.
For arguments sake - if it was to go ahead - how many B-21s does the armchair hive mind think `straya would need?
That said, we'd have to wait in line behind the USAF...
US$600m flyaway, is about a A$30-45 billion procurement and sustainment for 24. So a decision, if they are officially asked and offered, is significant. Up till now there hasn't been an apatite. The F-35 with standoff munitions and other stuff, is talked about.
