minus-squareShittyBeatlesFCPres@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·9 days agoI know it’s just a transport aircraft but $4.5m seems like a pretty square deal for a military plane.
minus-squareDiplomjodler@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·9 days agoThat’s a pretty arbitrary figure. Neither is that thing available on any sort of free market, nor does anybody have any idea how much it would cost to replace.
