>So the tank rounds are something like $500 each. I was surprised that the military could get anything for $500, so I looked up tank round prices. They are more like $5000-$10000 (M829A4).

> M829A4 That's using depleted uranium though, so I'm not surprised that's an expensive round. I'm looking up the M830 (HEAT), which is "just" explosives (with a bit of electronics), and that's closer to $1000. So my $500 estimate was definitely under the price of USA's ammo... but I'm pretty sure Russian ammo is cheaper.
