People! We must protest the catching of the sentient blimp. It must be allowed to do what blimps do and drift around somewhat.

FREE BLIMPY!

The blimp itself likely doesn't cost anywhere near that much. The instrumentation on it will be the expensive stuff, and much of that probably got salvaged.

It's used for radar detection of incoming missiles. It's way cheaper than UAVs on patrol around an area since it can just float in place.
