They are including R&D into the cost per unit I'm assuming. Problem is there are only a handful of these. If there were only 100 tomahawk missles (100k lbs of ordinance) ever produced with that program's R&D price tag you could probably say they are 100+ mil a peice easy. It simply doesn't cost that much to produce a unit though..

It's not trumps fault someone else developed a weapon that was never used or mass produced.

Using their logic Trump should just order 5 more and say he just cut the cost in half.

Someone should clue the bitch previously on the FINANCIAL channel about sunk costs.

It cost what it took to get it there.

WTF does she think we need to save it for?

No, they're not. They're listening to Leftist media tell a lie that the bomb cost $314 million.

They've been pushing this lie for two straight days. Fact is we had 20 of these MOAB produced and the total cost for all 20 was $314 million.

They cost about $16m each.

The notion that it was $9 million per ISIS militant death is freaking retarded.
