I asked the AIs what a 155mm shell costs. Here's what they said:

As of 26 Feb 2024, the cost of a single 155 mm artillery shell varies depending on the source. In January 2023, a total of 10,000 155 mm artillery rounds were ordered with a value of around 33 million euros, putting the cost of one shell at around 3.3 thousand euros.

So, with 1 euro at $1.09 USD, one shell is $3,597 and 170K shells equals $611,490,000. Good work if you can get it.
