They picked the $ off replacement cost, not he actual current value. That is the discrepancy. It has not cost us any more. Left us with like 6 billion not spent, still looks awful.
This.

per the article, "An accounting error has left the Pentagon with more than $6 billion in unspent aid to Ukraine"

it's already allocated, just not spent. So not an overage.

Yeah I saw it was just in the estimated value of the weapons, but still doesn't provide much confidence in the people spending our money. The entire gov't is peppered with incompetence and worse.
