We didn't try to analyze what the life-cycle costs would be. We didn't try to estimate whether they were going to be similar or not. We recognized that National Defence was saying they felt the additional costs beyond the contract for sustainment would be similar to those for the CF-18. We felt that was a pertinent piece of information that should have been disclosed. We didn't do an analysis ourselves on what the maintenance and operating costs would be.
