Best I could find were a 5 million and 100m dollar order for the 60ish suits plus 20m for what I’m guessing are 60 more PLSS units, though I’ll admit there might be fewer of those. Inflation happens and you’re on my number. But if you have a better source than someone said it on a forum once, I’ll gladly accept it.
Regardless, it was crazy expensive, and shouldn’t be swapped out with the other. The point stands
$700k was calculated assuming T&D and 2024 dollars, so you’re doubling down on math I already did.
The total budget for the suits in 1967 dollars was $100K/suit.
