Chapter 729: William's Lifetime Event (1/3 Update)

Although the accuracy of both types of rockets was not ideal, they were indeed the weapons with the longest range available at the time, and it was necessary to equip a certain number of missiles.

After careful consideration, Arthur decided to equip 1200 ground-launched missiles and an additional 500 small missiles that could be transported by transport planes.

The total cost of these missiles was close to 18 million Australian dollars, which was a significant investment.

It was unrealistic for the government to bear all the costs, as it still had an extensive eight-year development plan, which was the real budget drainer.

The Ministry of Defense had to cut back on a part of its budget, and the government had to scrape together 13 million Australian dollars from other sources to fund the construction of the missiles.
