In more concrete terms, how much was the total cost of the SR-71 and associated A-12 program? Or the F-117 program? Or the B-2 program?

What if they had to cancel or mothball multiple programs of that size?

What would it have cost if they had to cancel or mothball all stealth programs?

I’m not saying that is what actually happened, but that would give us a reasonable top end for the potential costs involved.
