Costs per T1 Hawk: 16-19 million.
Costs per Eurofighter: 90-120 million.
Eurofighter is too expensive for just a showact. For that money you could get frigates and corvettes for the shrinking Royal navy.
Quote:
On 24 October 2006, Lord Drayson, Minister for Defence Procurement, announced that a £450 million contract has been awarded to BAE Systems to build 28 Hawk T2 Advanced Jet Trainer aircraft which are planned to be delivered to RAF Valley in October 2008.
