M28a2 tank

I'd like to be the first to say this is the most beautiful thread I've ever read.

Lego, just how producable is the T-1001?  Like, how many can you build?  You listed your military budget as somewhere in the region of (converted to USD) $20 million.  Seeing as how the typical Abrams (or Creeper, or M28A2) costs between $4 and $7 million, ($4 million, not $4, although I wish.) either resources are insanely cheap in the ROTD (like, a couple cents for 1 ton of steel, which is insane even in a resource-rich area) or your tanks are really cheaply constructed, which would give size their only advantage.  Seeing as how you have to keep up a space fleet, airships, an army, guessing a terrestrial navy, an air force, administrative personnel, salaries, weapons, maintenance, AND an armored division for an interstellar empire, making tons of these tanks seems a bit improbable with such a budget.  Also, if your GDP is as outrageously big as it is, it would explain the lack of debt your country has but doesn't explain why such a tiny amount is relegated to military.  Do you have a ton of social programs that cost a lot?

At least i can transport mine. Besides a few condors and scorpions will beat the heck out of yours. Besides, we can keep swerving to avoid your fire and go in your blind side. And it is less detectable. Also the M28a2 has a bigger gun then the original M2. It could probably punch a hole in your armor. (Maybe not a big one though) Also the m28a2 is mass producable.
