Chapter 272: Big Belly No. 1

The performance of the third-generation military aircraft has been significantly improved, and its cost has also increased considerably.

The cost of the Eagle-3 reconnaissance aircraft reached 27,425 Australian dollars, and the cost of the Bengal Tiger-3 fighter aircraft reached 29,105 Australian dollars. The most expensive is the Phantom-3 bomber, which costs 32,725 Australian dollars.

In Arthur's plan to build 500 military aircraft, it includes 150 reconnaissance aircraft, 100 fighters, and 250 bombers, with a total cost of up to 15,025,500 Australian dollars, which is not a small number.

Even that is only a few million Australian dollars less than the military budget of Australasia last year, which is enough to show the current high cost of aircraft.

However, compared to these expenses, the role these 500 aircraft will play is far greater than the cost.
