This article misses the larger point. A drone costs $200. Why do missles cost $3 million? Yes, this is a cold war era missile. But with drones, the last thing we need is more cold-war era kit.
Imagine a theater of war with $100 million worth of $200 drones in it. That's 500,000 drones.

Or 1 f-35 joint strike fighter.
I think I'd rather have the drones.
