No, did not know about that!

The numbers are from an Aviation Week article I read early in the program, ie long ago, and ie, I may be off. At the time, the Navy was debating getting into the program.

The lasting impressions on me from the article: 1. I was astounded at the loss rate percentage (I could see that happening with a Pred, flying a piston in lower-altitude weather), and 2. I think they were about $30 million each.
