Guys you are distorting the figures.

The 130+ to 90+ figure is a capability statement i.e. if you want to kill the same amount of baddies over the lifetime of the jet you require 130+ Bs or significantly fewer Cs.

Some seem to suggest that this means we'll get more Bs.

Absolute hoop. I'll wager the actual buy will be identical. We can only afford so many, we'll only get so many, let's get the better one.
