Compare that to a base Black Hawk helicopter at 15 Million Dollars base.
So.... you can put up 3,000 of these things for the price on 1 Blackhawk.
I remember being told the price of cranking up an Apache was $1K. That was the cost back in the early '80s. Bunches of friends who took off for Aviation School for that Warrant Officer pay. Never hard to find people willing to fly once you've got 'em in uniform.
Did you see anything about the operating costs of these?
