    That'd be so funny. We scrambled fighter jets and fired missiles because at the cost of atleast tens of thousands of dollars because Jaxon is trying to get into MIT

      at the cost of atleast tens of thousands of dollars

      Think an order of magnitude or two higher. A single Raytheon AIM-9 Sidewinder costs $400,000. Flight time for a Lockheed Martin F-16 costs about $400 a minute to operate, and its annual maintenance costs are about $10,000,000.
