      These figures don’t count a lot of legacy costs to these conflicts either. Which skyrocket with injuries to soldiers and the like.

        They also don’t count the economic and social costs of the long-term fuel and food shortages and supply chain disruptions this war will cause.

        Not to mention the traditional crowd (Lockheed, Boeing etc)

        Nvidia has a lot to learn, GPUs are buy once, cry once. Munitions are disposable, and need to be replaced. When nvidia manages to fit a H100 in the body of a missile, the real money printing begins :)
