“I see costs as low as $400.00 for the basic artillery shell for the 155,”

From when, the 1950’s?

The Rheinmetall contract was 3300 euros per shell.

(the Bulgarian contract is very opaque, “up to xxx,xxx shells”, deliberately in my view both from that gov’t to hide what they are doing, and likely to hide corruption)

How much are the basic shells like the M795 or M107?
