Most Expensive U.S. combat vehicles to the present

The following 5 Most Expensive Warship
1. Iowa Class Battleship

battleships. Ships of this type required by the U.S. government in 1939 as the ultimate weapon to control the bat naval strength in the Pacific Ocean during World War II. Indeed the U.S. government planned to make six ships of this type, but because of the large costs required at the time it was decided to only make four boats only. Ships of Iowa began the task for the entire fleet units on 22 February 1943, and now all of his unit had to retire in March 2006.

The cost of making a ship at that time (1943) is approximately 1.8 billion USD (about 17 trillion USD). Actual costs would be kept confidential, but this is the calculation of the economic analysts at the time that has considered the factors of inflation and currency depreciation of the dollar. With the establishment of four ships worth 1.8 billion USD, meaning the total cost is $ 7.2. (about 68 trillion USD.).

With this much money can be spent how much?
2. Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle

Still remember the moment of the debate between the two kadidat American president John Mc Cain and Barack Obama discuss the presidential campaign when the defense department's budget? Do you remember when John Mc Cain talk about making amphibious vehicle program that suck that big budgets are quoted from the taxpayers? Why would this be a very interesting? Not least because the costs are budgeted to make this a fighting machine.

Job creation is true amphibious vehicle has been started since the 1970's and continues to this day. With a full aluminum body of the vehicle, capable of the ocean and superior when fighting on land. 3 is controlled vehicle capable of carrying 17 people and personnel. Total costs already incurred to date is 15.9 billion USD (about 140 trillion USD). There has been no one else that has to be amphibious and served in the U.S. Defence official, just a prototype that is still being refined and developed. U.S. Defence Parties are still not satisfied with the performance of these vehicles because it can only operate for a maximum of 4.5 hours.

With this much money, how much can be spent?

Ohio-class nuclear submarine that is a real successor of the previous series of nuclear submarines, such as the Trident Class. Submarine was manned by 155 crew. P {embuatan submarines are very secretive, especially its nuclear reactor, there is no single document that can be tracked. But, obviously, all of the following is a submarine propulsion system mechanical life support in it (separation of water into the air, purifying sea water) is designed to be capable of operating up to 100 years old submarine. What does it mean? Suppose that the submarine was filled with food material, and sail around the ocean, the submarine was only stopped when the material runs out of food, not because the fuel runs out.

The cost of making the submarine is about 2 billion USD (about 19 trillion USD.) Per unit. Currently the U.S. has 18 units of the Ohio-class nuclear submarines. Thus, the total worth of 18 billion USD (about Rp 165 trillion.)

With this much money, how much can be spent?
In this stage, be prepared you to imagine something more. If that kind of money budgeted for the African continent, then each person, including infants hing

Until now there are 10 units of the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier operations. With about 400 meters long, and manned by 5700 personnel, aircraft carriers cruising is the same as the Ohio-class submarines, capable of sailing around the ocean without stopping. The cost of making an aircraft carrier is about 4.5 billion USD (about 40 trillion USD), so that when the entire fleet totaled price is 45 billion USD (about 400 trillion USD).

With this much money, how much can be spent?
Enough to buy 1 unit iPod Nano for all the American people from infants to the elderly.

Of the four combat vehicles are indeed remarkable, but there is more remarkable is the position of the 1
namely:

Imagine, if your house next to the headquarters of the Armed Forces, and then you're also the state of confrontation with the United States. When you sit down, sit back, not once does not seem sound in silence ... Suddenly in the distance is less than 1 mile sejarak had seen the plane B-2 Spirit bomber that has opened the stomach to drop a bomb on your neighbor.

That's the stealth bomber, which haunts the location where the conflict with America. During buertugas, none of these planes were shot down an enemy. This aircraft was manufactured as many as 21 units, where 1 unit has been dropped not because of fighting in homeport, Guam. By law, the Americans are not going to sell stealth aircraft (B-2 Spirit, F-22, F-117) to any country.

The cost of making this aircraft ranging from ideas, prototypes to production of a plane is 23 billion USD (about Rp 205 trillion.). However, the price of a plane is 1.3 billion USD (about Rp 10.5 trillion.). When 21 units of aircraft that are ready to operate anywhere around the world multiplied by 1.3 billion USD plus
Research costs $ 23 USD, then it's all worth 50.3 billion USD (around 490 trillion USD).

With this much money, how much can be spent?
Buy all the land Afghanistan to end all wars stopped buying the return of Honduras, then there is little change to have fun as much in Giant Central American theme-park.

Of the origin of this concept is not just playing dirty. There are a number of advantages can be achieved by that form. Speed ​​sailing for example, could be 20 percent higher than a conventional hull design. Similarly, the level of stability and payload capacity. Until now, in addition to interest.
