"Replacement cost of the canopy will be $182,205." If the Air Force gets screwed the same way that the Army does, this thing probably only costs about $10 to manufacture.

Shouldn't cost the Air Force a dime. It's should still be under a 3 year 100,000 mile warranty.

Neither the Army nor the Air Force are getting screwed. You and I are getting screwed.
