As per
Page 61, F-35 Aircraft Unit Cost Report Page 64 F-35 Engine Unit Cost Report
Average F-35 price over the total buy
F-35
A Unit Recurring Flyaway (URF) Cost inc. engine = $78.7 M
(This is close enough to the 2008 yr $'s of $75m DMO estimate for me, although the Aussie average URF will be slightly less because we are buying in specific years. As per page 39 and 54 (RF/60=URF) for year 2018, the F-35A is $72.5 M URF in BY2012$.)
Average F-35B Unit Recurring Flyaway (URF) Cost inc. engine = $106.5 M
Average F-35C Unit Recurring Flyaway (URF) Cost inc. engine = $87 M
