("On the first day of strikes alone, U.S.-led forces launched 112 long-range Tomahawk cruise missiles, which cost about $1 million to $1.5 million apiece, from ships stationed off the Libyan coast. That totaled $112 million to $168 million. Since those first strikes, U.S. and British forces have launched at least another 12 Tomahawk missiles")

(AFRICOM; one of ten Unified Combatant Commands of the United States military; headquartered at Kelley Barracks, Stuttgart, Germany; an area of responsibility covering all of Africa except Egypt)

The map shows the creation of AFRICOM, with the left panel headlined "Today." The caption indicates it is "February 2007 Draft Map." And AFRICOM was created in 2008.
