The total of 17 (seventeen) billion, which is a tiny part of America's annual defense budget (722 billion for 2022).
That's hilarious how so little demolished Russia's "superpower" army that actually believed they would could steamrolled all of NATO.
This is by far the most cost-effective American large scale military investment of all time. Ridicalously so. So much that you (plural as you got upvotes without being corrected) thought it must have been "hundreds of billions" involved.
To compare, Vietnam cost America 1 trillion in today's dollars, Iraq about 2 trillion, and the F-35 program maybe even more. (Also they just sentenced Alex Jones to pay 1 billion.)
That’s purely in aid though, how much has america spent on the conflict itself? Clearly they’re running a massive advertising/influencing campaign on top of the aid, and chances are they’re providing constant sat/intel feeds for the uke’s, neither of which are free.
All I’m saying is, this “conflict” is far from one-sided

The sattelites have been up in the space already, the air recon (https://youtube.com/watch?v=zt5j2mrXLks) is just few planes flying in turns.
And, to be honest, the most important issue was this: https://youtube.com/watch?v=i9i47sgi-V4
