Thanks for the link! If the program cost 314M, then they'd only have 20 of them at 15.7M each. I'm thinking it's more like 2M each. A Tomahawk missile costs around that much & has engines & much more complex electronics.
It's just a really big bomb, there's little guidance & no engines. But they are "listed at" 15M so :/
Yeah I assumed the program cost was mainly research and development but I don’t know for sure. If we’re the only western country that has them I assumed there was more to it than it just being a big bomb but I know basically nothing about ordinance so shrug
Regardless of how much it cost, it’s the govt so we know they overpaid lol
