Avari uses the maximum amount of existing technologies possible to minimize the overall cost. As the cost is repeatedly highlighted by the RFP, this became a major design driver. To meet this cost, the selections of low-cost and easily manufactured materials was a high priority along with minimizing the overall aircraft weight, as most aircraft are ?bought by the pound.? The large loiter section of the Combat-Air Patrol mission created a large fuel requirement, which created a large empty weight. Notable requirements that are met include takeoff and landing distances less than 8,000 feet, a loiter time greater than 4 hours, a dash speed greater than 2.2, and a flyaway cost of under $15 million. Materials, maintenance, manufacturing, and cost are kept minimal by using existing technology and low part counts.
