Show COST DATA FOR FIN- STABILIZED PROJECTILES During the past winter ( 1964- 65) many people have inquired about the price of a fin stabilized projectile round which is propelled from the avalauncher. In this report no attempt has been made to figure cost data for the unstabiliz-ed HDP round because none have been fired. All firing was done with the fin stabilized projectile. Following is a list of component parts with prices FOB Denver. This list is first presented in bulk form and then reduced to cost per unit in a following list. I terns listed do not constitute an endorsement of products. Other available sources may prevail in other geographical locations. The make- up of the projectile is what the writer used this past winter. Investigation has shown that some prices will change for next winter's operation. Also, a substitution in products has shown that a saving can be achieved. Prices for next winter's operation will be shown at the end of this writing.
