Total cost of repair: $13,400 per aircraft
480 F-35Cs to be built so $13,400 * 480 = $6,432,000

Far less than it would take to fit them with a cup holder and pez dispenser that has been suggested.


You forgot the labour 3500 man hours per aircraft at $1500 per hour so an additional $5,250,000 per aircraft.
