They have been used by our Militia (equivalent to National Guard\State Police) for several years. They were used in 2 conflicts on our home soil but have been maintained by our forces on a regular basis.

you guys do realize we have an INFINITE supply of money. You actually COULD do a way of calculating that. Something like, take your economy rank's guestimated GNP, multiplied by your income tax rate, and then multiplied by your guestimated military funding. Sort of a start I guess? Anyways, I think an Abrams is only worth about 11 million a piece.
