Raytheon, the company that makes the Tomahawk missiles used in the air strikes on Syria by the United States, is rising in early stock trading Friday.

Investors seem to be betting President Trump's decision to retaliate against Syria after the chemical attack on Syrian citizens earlier this week may mean the Pentagon will need more Tomahawks.

1. Oh Fuckity Fuck!

[IthinkThereforeIAM]

2. Totally predictable...

... so predictable that it was my second thought, after, "Wow, look how those missiles wobble when they take off".

[sarisataka]

3. They will likely get

A $60 million order very soon...

[Wellstone ruled]

7. Yes they will.

That is a open ended as needed order. Honeywell ran the early Tomahawk Program as a Subcontractor . Hunch some of the Die casting is in Mexico.

8. I can't seem to find a per unit cost online.

I went to about 10 websites with each saying the Tomahawk missles cost different amounts. The lowest was $800,000 per missle and the highest was $1.59 million per missle but no two websites had the same price tag.

12. That's because you are seeing prices from different years.

I believe the $1.59 M is in 2015 dollars, so tack on a bit for inflation and use that.

17. Also the size of the order will effect cost as well

Buying 10 will have a higher cost per unit than buying 100. This article says the 2017 Navy budget expected them at $1.5M. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/this-is-how-much-it-will-cost-to-replace-the-tomahawks-used-in-syria-2017-04-07

[YOHABLO]

10. A life threatening illness, started by the Milton Freedman Capitalist.

Capitalism has eaten us alive .. and people are so ignorant and brainwashed they don't even know that they're doomed.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

11. Of course

We just spent $84 million on a what amounted to be little better than a fireworks display. Those missiles will have to be replaced.

[WoonTars]

13. Sure, they're about to get orders for 60 more...

...that won't exactly hurt the bottom line...

[heaven05]

14. This is sickening

money, money, money is the GOD of this world and everyone is bowing down to it. Some have a lot, many many don't have enough, even to eat healthy and well

[metalbot]

15. Don't worry - Trump's going to make Syria pay for the cruise missiles!

I'm actually a little surprised we haven't seen that tweet yet...
