Yah, more weight more drag, basically same engine.   Slight adjustment to flight program.   Plus a lot of code for  weapon and battle mgmt, when it comes.   A lot of little flight buddies to do the work.  The heaviest depot maintenance effort will be managing and updating that software!  It's always behind the latest schedule!!

The only thing in common between the A, B and C is the nose/cockpit section, the engine and the mission avionics. The fuselage barrels are all different and the C has bigger wings and tail surfaces. The Cs also have the cooling and computer capacity for the Block 4 software update as well as others.
