How much it costs to rent Air Force bombers, fighters, and cargo planes

The Defense Department calculates the hourly reimbursement cost for each branch’s aircraft

— rates used to charge nongovernmental organizations or civilians for events, such as flyovers at sporting events.

The Air Force plane with the highest rate is the E-4B airborne command center, which costs $73,123 an hour.

Heavy bombers, such as the B-1B and B-2A, are also really expensive, likely based on fuel and crew costs.
