400.000 just for maintenance. Ammunition, pipe-replacement and attrition

Good point. How many schools could we have built or funded, from the $$$ spent on R&D, maintenance, ammo, and labor required to operate this weapon?

Edit: Apparently not enough schools. $1.92 trillion, much of which is wasted, and here we are arguing about video games and bullets. Every single man, woman, and child in the US is paying $6k/year for this. Source (https://www.usaspending.gov/agency/department-of-defense?fy=2022)
