In Feb 2008 a B-2 bomber -the Spirit Of Kansas crashed during take-off on the island of Guam. The subsequent investigation report began ....''The Mishap Aircraft was destroyed at a total loss of $1,407,006,920''
I can believe this because about 15 years ago the Pentagon carried out an investigation into purchasing costs, it covered everything, but one item caught my attention.
It said that they (The American military machine) were paying $514 for a hammer - yes one of those things you use to bang nails in
