Rt @LaTribune, more than 80 MICA missiles, each costing between €600,000 and €700,000, had been fired in total from the 12 French air force Rafale jet fighters operating in the #UAE before the weekend of March 28, since the beginning of the Iranian conflict.
French state sources do give a Mica price of €600-700k, but others give a cost of €1.5 million to €2 million ($1.6M–$2.2M) per unit.
India paid €1.9 m per Mica.
The new Mica NG programe cost $1.8 billion for 200+367 missiles - a unit price of €3.174 million!
The Chief of Staff of the French Army @CEMAT_FR announces the deployment of 4 Tiger helicopters in the Gulf to provide our military with an additional option for intercepting Iranian drones that threaten our nationals and our allies.
At a more affordable cost.
