yeah, kind of ironic right after a successful abm test.
"Each B-2 bomber costs about $1.2 billion to build."
Ouch. Good thing the pilots are alive.

Well...now we've got 20. And we won't be getting any more.
It is a good thing the crew made it out. Sounds like one of them is a little banged up, though.
Thing's been operational for 15 years and this is the first crash...not bad, all things considered.

I think lots of crews who know how to operate vehicles, especially sophisticated ones, often are worth more than the vehicle itself.
But do you think a B2 crew is worth more than 1.2 billion dollars? Anyone know? That'd be insane.

Don't think it's nearly 1.2 billion.
They of course are worth more than any machine because they are people.
