That is just so much stuff. I get it and im not against it but far out I can't imagine what $8 billion of military things on a battlefield looks like. And all the support they're probably providing in training and information to help along with it. Russian leaders must get a deep sinking feeling every time something like this is announced
Some types of ammo can get expensive. For example, the Patriot surface-to-air defense system fires missiles that cost 2-4 million Dollars each, while Russia launches some 4k missiles and 2k drones per year at ukrainian cities.
3 hand grenades and a barrel of gunpowder. Best I can do for 8 billion.
