Hi jon44 and thanks for the question.

I have been unable to completely fulfill the answer to your question
and so I am posting this as a comment.  However if the information I
have supplied is sufficient please let me know.

1.)“PAC-3 Kinetic Energy Missile “
“The Pac-3 missile costs about $4 million per interceptor. That
compares with less than $2 million the service wants to pay. Urias
noted that the Army has made several investments to curb the cost of
the missile. But those down payments only were made last fiscal year,
with more planned this year, which means they won't materialize until
around 2005. Moreover, he noted that Pac-3 costs won't drop
substantially until the missiles are bought in larger quantities. “

of equipment which came to $498 million

Looks like you got 2 for 5.  I'd like to shoot you a prorated fee

Hi jon44

Thanks!
You could post a new question (a simple one pleeease:) for $4 and ask
specifically for THX1138 to answer it :)

By the way the "Arms Sales Monitor" website I mentioned was quite
interesting http://www.fas.org/asmp/

All the best
