I think we would end up building it for a whole heck of alot more than 750 million. That would be a downright bargain for the first working military mech. I'm thinking of upwards of 2 billion for the first one if we tried to build it now--don't forget all the stuff DARPA and others have already done that would inform the tech.
It'll probably be a lot more. We need to improve weapons tech, come up with some sort of portable fusion generator to make it go as nicely as we'll want, and figure out how to hook it up to a human to make it move without a hundred levers and buttons inside the thing.

Reply to Otterbox is 10 years oldby newiron09Having tried many cases I've given up on expensive ones. Not convinced they are significantly better than an inexpensive gel case for 1/10 the money....15 Sep 2024, 09:20 AM
