That works out to $106.6 million per average F-35 unit cost.(if those figures are accurate). That's all models/all users/average price including develpmental costs.
Sure, with A the cheapest at 82 million and B the costliest at 130 million, the average price comes to 106 million, which probably is also the price of the C.
The B still has 208 million USD to go before it reaches the Raptor, A has 256 and C has 232. A, at the moment is less than a quarter of the Raptors cost, C less than a third, but the most variable of the three.
