JSFfan, I'm puzzled with you acquisition comprehension.
URF, NRF and total unit price (?), are used for micro analyzis of the manufacturing cost behavior and since GAO advises DoD, it's perfectly normal for them to use that metric.
However, that doesn't abolish taxpayer from paying the rest (WS, APUC, PAUC, LCC and total ownership cost), which is much more important then 'URF' or 'NRF' because it denotes the actual amount of money the government needs to pay if they want to see the aircraft on their tarmac.
