F-35I too costly for Israelis
Israeli defense officials are shocked that a F-35 customized with Israeli equipment will cost three times more than the projected $80 million per plane.
"It's unbelievable," a member of the IDF General Staff said. "First it was $40 million to $50 million, and then they [the IAF] told us $70 million to $80 million. Now, we're looking at nearly three times that amount, and who's to say it won't continue to climb?"
