In April 1968 the Sentinel production contract was signed, the first production contract for a US ABM system. At the time, the cost for the system was estimated to be $4 to $6 billion ($37 to $55 billion in 2025) and as much as $20-$60 billion if the system was to be expanded to deal with any sort of Soviet threat as well.
