What value do you put on a soldiers life?
We use missiles and bombs so we don't have to send in men, men who could have lost their lives destroying the equipment you listed.
Does it still look like a lot of money or would you have preferred a few squaddies died if it cost less?
What is the cost per man per day when deployed in the field?
