In 2016, each round cost about $68k each. A 155mm HE round cost about $400 each. Is the 25+ mile range difference worth $68,000? Which is better, one high tech rocket assisted round or 170 dumb rounds?

Having been on the receiving end of numerous "danger close" missions, I'd say it depends on one's immediate perspective! . . .

Good fiscally conservative point. What's the cost for a fighter attack mission, fixed wing or rotary, including missile(s)? Even Navy SLCM. Replacement cost for arty piece due to counter battery fire vs. F-22 hit by a missile. Just spitballing.
