JSF dollars then and now

What Boeing was thinking about their Joint Strike Fighter concept back in the early to mid 1990's. Source: Boeing.

The Boeing JSF unit flyaway costs meet the government target values for the Conventional Takeoff and Landing (CTOL) variant-$28M, the Short Takeoff and Vertical Landing (STOVL) variant-$30M-$35M, and the Carrier-based (CV) variant-$31M-$38M (CY94$).

Emphasis added.

What that means in today's dollars:

The Boeing JSF unit flyaway costs meet the government target values for the Conventional Takeoff and Landing (CTOL) variant-$44M, the Short Takeoff and Vertical Landing (STOVL) variant-$48M-$59M, and the Carrier-based (CV) variant-$31M-$38M (CY2012$).

That is an increase of 55.5 percent. And that would assume everything goes to the rosy plan back in the days of wild fantasy.
