The cost of one tank will be $ 13. 95 million, and the total price will be $ 460. 6 million. Now the cost of Booker has declined compared to the first predatorial batch of 33 cars. They cost $ 496. 8 million or $ 15 million per car. It is noted that this is a common situation, because when production becomes serial, it is cheaper. The US Army plans to have 504 Booker combat vehicles by 2035. Therefore, the cost may decrease even more.
The American combat machine is built on the basis of BMP ASCOD with controls from Abrams and 105mm gun. Its value is on par with the western BMP. For example, one Swedish BMP CV90 costs about $ 10 million. Also, the ASCOD platform is the basis for other machines: conceptually the US Army wants to get a car to strengthen the firearms of units. That is why it is a combat vehicle, not a BMP or other type of equipment. We will remind, on June 29 the media showed a new M10 Booker machine.
