There are multiple different types of rounds and the costs depend on the particular round. The cheapest one...just a cast-iron body, HE filler, and fuzing system, costed about $300-$400. Something like the 155mm round that was supposed to be used on a zumwalt ships gun...that bitch was market up to $1,000,000. That wasn't a typo...the kike usurers want literally $1,000,000 for a 155mm round.
One that has a rocket-assist or advanced prevision guidance system costs around $100k -

how recent are those prices though? because I've read in multiple places due to lack of supply and labour costs they're paying $2000-$6000US for the basic ones now -

2023-12-03 at 7:42 AM UTCnothing to do with how much the workers are paid, the US can currently manufacture an estimated 45,000 155mm artillery shells a year

Ukraine's showed that industrial warfare is very much still a thing when you're not shooting at brown people without a serious military
