The Joint Program Office, which oversees the project, disagrees with the G.A.O.但ﾂﾂ冱 assessment, arguing that it does not break out the F-35 by variant and does not take into account what they contend is a learning curve that will drive prices down over time. They say a more realistic figure is $120 million a copy, which will go down with each production batch. Critics, like Winslow Wheeler, from the Project on Government Oversight and a longtime G.A.O. official, argue the opposite: 但ﾂﾂ弋he true cost of the airplane但ﾂﾂ背hen you cast aside all the bullshit但ﾂﾂ琶s $219 million or more a copy, and that number is likely to go up.但ﾂﾂ�
