In all fairness to Tcabot113 it has to be noted that doing the math with the above mentioned figure would give us an overall cost of ~217 mio US $ per copy !
Real Unit price price will probably be somewhere in between but the 20 mio figure for the civilian 'public transport bus' will be surely exceeded by a solid margin for a fully equipped military version including defensive/navigation/communication avionics / ballistic protection, uograded engines, transmission, etc.
