  • Hellfire

    I just finished a hellfire shot this weekend. The cost of the missile(not rocket) all depends on what type. The cost ranges from around 50,000$ well into the 100,000$ range. I've only shot the hellfire II in simulators and well it was kind of disapointing.

    • Not the most recent data, but its been a...

      The cost per missile is about $58,000.

      HELLFIRE is an air-to-ground missile system designed to defeat tanks and other individual targets while minimizing the exposure of the launch vehicle to enemy fire. HELLFIRE uses laser guidance and is designed to accept other guidance packages. It is used on helicopters against heavily armored vehicles at longer standoff distances than any other Army missiles now in the inventory. The HELLFIRE II is the optimized version of the laser family of HELLFIRE missiles. The Longbow HELLFIRE Modular Missile System is an air-launched, radar aided, inertially guided missile that utilizes millimeter wave radar technology.
