    Article says they used 77 Kh-101 cruise missiles which it says “cost” $13m each, so that’s $1b.

    I suspect that value includes development costs which were spent decades ago.

    It might only cost $1m to make another one.

      they had to use them eventually, they were built for this exact purpose. so they invested in destruction, they didnt loose money at all.
