i dont really know how overprices military gear is. what i do know is that some canadian veteren asked our version of va to install a ramp so his house was wheelchair accessable, that the cost for va to install the ramp was about $20k, which they deemed too expensive and so denied it, and so it got done by a private contractor for $850. the way the military industrial complex works is that the companies bid on the contracts, and the lowest bidder wins, except that corruption has resulted in the highest bidder, the one who charges the most, winning, because they then give kickbacks to the politicians. so, yeah, shit is overpriced. not sure by how much, but im willing to guess 500% overcharge as a minimum. imagine some guy on an airbase going into the armory where they keep all the missiles and bombs that they load onto the jets and bombers, and then rigging a c4 to it. or loosing the bolts on all those expensive drones.
