Missiles, fyi
Cost of a Tomahawk cruise missile: approximately $756,000 in 2011-dollars.
Cost of an AGM-86B cruise missile: $1,000,000.
Cost of a Harpoon cruise missile: $1,200,000.
Cost of an AGM-129 Advanced Cruise Missile: $4.0 million.
But there are other options. Maybe I'd feel better our defense budget if I had some reason to believe that we were paying reasonable prices for the hardware.
