Over 100 successful ejections per year? That's wild! That sounds like an awful lot of hull losses. And how many people weren't saved?

What's the risk calculus look like for a plane with an ejection seat vs. a plane without one? War obviously has one risk profile, but military vehicles and their operation differ wildly from day to day commercial operation.
