An Arleigh Burke Class costs about $800million, so it must be more expensive as stated above.

These vessels would be a useful addition to the Aequatian Naval Arm until we can bring our own number of Guardian class destroyers up, we are interested in a contract for the construction of 35 vessels. 3.5 billion USD will be wired upon confirmation.
