Even considering that hypothetical scenario, there's also the cost of training everyone throughout the logistics chain and required to get the plane operational and in the air.
If you lose a peasant, you lose a peasant. If you lose a knight, you also lose the squire, the page, etc etc etc.
- maxerickson 10y agoThe tactical decision is going to consider a value pretty close to the cost of the plane and pilot though. The logistics chain can support a new plane and pilot. The squire can help some new guy with his helmet, etc (I think this is considerably more true for modern military than for knights...).
