"...As at June 2012, the JSF Program Office estimated the Unit Recurring Flyaway (URF) cost of a
CTOL F‐35A aircraft for Fiscal Year 2012 to be US$131.4 million. That cost includes the baseline aircraft configuration, including airframe, engine and avionics. The
URF cost is estimated to reduce to US$127.3 million in 2013, and to
US$83.4 million in 2019. These expected price reductions take into account economies of scale resulting from increasing production volumes, as well as the effects of inflation. The estimates indicate that, after 2019, inflation will increase the URF cost of each F‐35A by about US$2 million per year. However, these estimates remain dependent upon expected orders from the United States and other nations, as well as the delivery of expected benefits of continuing Will‐Cost/Should‐Cost management by the US Department of Defense...."
