I'm sure it costs a lot to train an F16 pilot, but how much does an F16 cost? I'd wager an F16 is "worth more" to the airforce than a pilot's live.

- ElFitz 6y agoWell, yes and no. Where you could ramp up a plane’s production, I’d wager there’s a scarcity problem when it comes to pilots (even though you could ramp up pilot training).
- HDMI_Cable 6y agoI don't know if eject seats are still used, but the use of those seems like they value the pilot's life over the F-16.
- xiphias2 6y agoIf they lose the war they lose many pilots and many F16s anyways, don't they?
