Soviet Union to pour billions into SS-9 missiles by 1975
The Pentagon estimates the Soviets will spend more than 12 billion dollars on its growing SS-9 missile force by 1975, with 420 missiles projected by the mid 1970s and 230 already operational or under construction. At 30 million dollars each, the SS-9s threaten U.S. Minuteman silos, prompting debate over ABM safeguards and defense costs. Melvin Laird warned that without Safeguard deployment, survivability of the Minuteman force could fall sharply by the late 1970s.
