Nincs sok ertelme a ket program osszehasonlitasanak, mivel mar annak a vitanak sem lenne vege, hogy melyiknel mit veszunk bele a program koltsegebe.
Peldaul igy:
"According to Atomic Audit the Manhattan Engineer District cost $25.6 billion (chart on page 32) while total flyaway procurement costs (excluding R&D, spare parts, and ground support equipment) for the B-29 program came to $27.4 billion (both in 1996 dollars) over 3,960 planes (table on page 113)."
"Manhattan Eng Distr [Table 1-1, p.60] seems to consist of infrastructure & operating costs alone: Oak Ridge, Hanford, Los Alamos, R&D, govt overhead, heavy-water plants, special operating materials: 21.6B in 1996 dollars through 1945. MED produced nine new bombs [accounting for most of the $3.1B spent] before falling into the new Atomic Energy Commission [IJan47]. "
A B29-hez meg meg hozzajon a B32 koltsege is, mivel annak rizikos volta miatt kezdtek el a fejlesztest...
Apples and oranges... igazabol, raadasul, hogy nem mutually exclusive-ek voltak.
