stealth fighter jets to the US Department of Defense, hoping to
replace some of its older F-15 and F-16 fighter jets with the new
model.
Several days later, there were reports that the two sides had reached
an 'understanding' over the purchase after some initial disagreements.

one pilot is $1.5 million (excluding air time).

for training, and then on to Israel.
