I'd recommend performing the Kolvoord Starburst maneuver if you can find a few pilots bold enough for such a stunt.
As for the dollar amount, it's hard to say considering the risk. I'd leave that up to you.
I was already tentative when I found out what your idea was. It was ridiculous enough. Then you suggest they have super cruise? Miniguns?!
I really couldn't be more STOKED!! SPACE HORSES?! THAT IS AMAZING!!
