The Priciest Military Vehicles in The U.S. Arsenal Will Boggle Your Brain

Northrop Grumman RQ-4 Global Hawk – Cost: $176 Million

The history of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) dates back to the 18th century, but even by the ’90s, not many countries had a UAV as advanced as the Northrop Grumman RQ-4 Global Hawk, which entered operational service with the United States Air Force in 2001 and has since been used in conflicts such as the War in Afghanistan.

With a wingspan of 130 feet and the ability to fly at altitudes of up to 60,000 feet for more than 30 hours, the Global Hawk’s capabilities should not be underestimated. It is also equipped with a wide range of sensors, including a synthetic aperture radar, cameras, and sensors.
