That's some Top Gun-level trolling right there.

Lockheed Martin just got a new contract for $32 million. Putin really is the US MIC's best friend.

Every jet that buzzes a US drone is a jet that isnt bombing a hospital or apartment building, so in a way yes.

Just like the chinese balloons, Biden does nothing.

If Trump were president, the space force would be redirecting asteroids towards moscow the moment that drone was touched.

Actually he spent $400,000 shooting the first one down.

Those missiles didn't cost $400k before the workers unionized.

Why are the figures being thrown around so wildly different? In 2021 it was supposedly $56 million for 4 airframes. Elsewhere it's quoted as $32 million per unit. Time estimated $4-5 million (?!) in 2012. Then $14 million in 2015 (agrees with the $56m for 4 figure).

Either I'm being retarded (distinct possibility) or nobody seems to be quite sure.

I choose to believe the $32 million figure though because it's amusing to think it cost about the same as the Su-27 that brought it down. Americans go hard.

By the time the next article is out, Bidenflation has already changed the cost of an MQ-9.

A $3.20 pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-prototypal development in correction pseudo-flation time-suspe cost "dra"; Anglo-Teuton on the standards of pre-geometric technology "DRAAAAAAAAAAaaaa".
