A bespoke 2-stage missile, which still requires a bespoke radio link and a computer-controlled, high-demand actuation system that needs to be fast enough to hit targets manoeuvring at up to 9g. A GPS guided rocket uses a mass-produced GPS receiver and a low demand actuation system to hit a fixed target. I also see no evidence of a Pantsir-S1 hitting a ballistic rocket/missile, a Buk maybe, but that's much more expensive. Like I said, conventional logic dictates that any SAM costs more than a rocket, find me a price and prove me wrong.Lol. The Pantsir is basically a rocket with command guidance.
Tamir:
The Tamir interceptor was initially estimated to cost $100,000 to produce, but recent estimates assert unit costs of roughly $40,000 to $50,000 each.4

Iron Dome is an Israeli mobile missile defense system designed to intercept short-range rockets and artillery. It comprises the lowest tier of Israel’s missile defense architecture, intended to counter unguided rocket and drone attacks from the Palestinian Territories and Hezbollah-controlled...missilethreat.csis.org
Iron Dome’s Tamir missiles cost anywhere from $20,000 to $100,000 each, depending on whose numbers are being quoted.Iron Dome | Air & Space Forces Magazine

Oh, so you're saying last year, when the budget was set, they had already decided they were going to spend, according to you, $0.9B a day and have already set that amount aside?
And they are down $350B a year when their yearly budget is less than $300B a year?
Do you actually think before you post? Or are you a bot of some kind?
Which page did you find this in CIA's factbook for sheep?

It's everything but a failed state, if it were a failed state Russia would be in Kyiv already. The parts Russia have invaded are failed for sure though. Levelled-failed.
So where's the problem with what he actually says?
76% of gas doesn't come from Russia. GFCH will no longer be sold after 2030 in the EU/UK, so as with oil, demand will reduce, all Russia has done is jump off the rollercoaster before the ride has finished.
Natural gas soars 700%, becoming driving force in the new cold war
The war in Ukraine brought the gas crisis to a new level, Natural Gas price jumps 700%, becoming a driving force in the new cold war.www.business-standard.com
ouch ,
Well the market needs to move to meet the demand.
A jam-resistant device interfaced to a computer-controlled actuation system that has to respond fast enough to hit 9g targets. I don't know why we're discussing Pantsir-S1 anyway, there's no evidence it's hit a ballistic missile or rocket, and I question the ability of a radio command missile to do so. So far you have provided to evidence of cost or ability.Oh, no, a device as expensive as a cellphone...
Since when was an actuation system expensive?
India paid $215m for 300 R-73Es in 2019. That's ~$720k per missile (for the export version), AIM-9X is $400k. So there's no evidence Russian stuff is even cheaper than Western stuff unless Russia is bumming you to death on prices.Oh, no, a device as expensive as a cellphone...
