25 C-53 troop transport planes.
25 C-47 cargo transport planes.
1 "scrapped" B-29 Flying Fortress.
Each C-53 costs 38,000, totaling 950,000.
Each C-47 costs 36,000, totaling 900,000.
The scrapped B-29 Flying Fortress is priced at $150,000.
The total price is exactly $2 million.
The B-29 Flying Fortress cost 650,000 US dollars to build. Even if scrapped, it is much more expensive than the C-47. Hardy had no objections to this price. Mainly, it was extremely difficult to buy even if one had the money.
