>>14092870Each RS-25 is $146 mil in accordance with the contract aerojet is running on, so that would be 4 x $146 mil, or $584 million so far
Northrop got $3.2 bil for five SLS rockets, or $640 million per flight, so that would be $584 plus 640 mil, or $1 bil 224 mil so far
Then you have ~$800 mil per Exploration Upper Stage, figure given by NASA when they were searching for alternatives before rejecting Blue Origins WORSE proposal, so that is $1 bil 224 mil plus $800 mil, or $2billion 24 million so far
We haven't even taken into account the cost of the core stage, interstate, the fairing, the launch escape tower. It is a fucking pork barrel
