Suverina Posted April 15, 2006 Author Share Posted April 15, 2006 1200? Can you really afford that? Reality please gentlemen. How poor do you think I am?????? Link to comment
Akiiryu Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 Not poor, but come on 1200 bombers? Most countries buy planes in lots of about 12. It is not just a matter of cost. It is a matter of storage, fueling, arming, maintenance, crewing etc. I also think, might I add, that Adpt's prices are a little on the low side. Link to comment
Adaptus Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 How come? I do my research now, on prices. Link to comment

It is a matter of storage, fueling, arming, maintenance, crewing etc. . Come on! 8 squadrons of bombers. That doesen't take too much in cost. I buy my airforce in 1 peace. So what? I have had lots of time to build airforces and other arming industries. + that i have foreign arms-industry investements from Vickers. Come on in RL Denmark-countries buy 12 bombers, they have 5 million inhabitants, I've got a biiit more. Yellow text, yhea... Edited April 15, 2006 by Suverina (see edit history) Link to comment
Upper Strathyclyde Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 (edited) I'm with Akiiryu on this one. Valkaryies are very expensive! Just don't have anything fly to close, cuz it'll get sucked up by your bomber. LOL! Edited April 15, 2006 by Upper Strathyclyde (see edit history) Link to comment
Adaptus Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 Ok, the Valkyrie, was an experimental aircraft, developed by the US, I just fused it with the B-58 Hustler. acoarding to the site in which I took the stats from, it cost 12.4 million for the US to produce a Hustler. So in essance, your getting it cheaper http://www.globalaircraft.org/planes/b-58_hustler.pl Heres the site. Link to comment
Akiiryu Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 Then Hustler was Built in 1956. The Price you are quoting is 1956 dollars...which were worth a lot more than today. Today's prices? Well an F-22 is estimated at costing c.US$85 Million a plane. A B-52 (first built in 1955, I think) has a unit cost of about US$30 Million. This is not including all the up grades through its service life. Again none of these figures include service, equippping etc. Link to comment
Adaptus Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 You know what, I never thought about inflation, must have been because I mostly use more modern systems. Haha, cheers for that point Aki. Link to comment

Suverina Posted April 16, 2006 Author Share Posted April 16, 2006 Do so, it's the cheapest tank in Europa, it's very small and cost-effective. Link to comment
