As a person who worked on A-3, A-6, and A-7 are jets which paid for themselves with great service records. Each generation requires an expense and today there are jets which cost so much and have great performance like the FA-18.
The marines need their jump jet and this jet may be the ticket.
I still don't know why a jet would cost 1/4 of a billion? Anything over 100 million should be VERY good for the buck.
