Its application is only if it is in quantity, how much does the Shahed version of MBDA cost?

Russia’s biggest advantage over Ukraine at the moment is its advanced fiber-optic drones, which are unjammable and very difficult to destroy. And they are produced by the hundreds, focused on logistics and infrastructure. But today these drones are attacking logistics routes on the front and may soon be in Sumy. This is how the Russians pushed the Ukrainians to Sumy from Kursk.

No idea about the price, but they expect to manufacture 1,000 drones a month, and expects it to be a fraction of the cost of a traditional cruise missile, so I'm expecting below $100,000 per unit.
Considering it's application, and higher speeds to the Shahed making it more survivable, i do think that it'll find a customer sooner rather than later.
The Shahed was a massive success, and a more survivable version should be more of a success.

1,000 drones per month and 100 thousand? Good luck to the Europeans!!!!

Less than $100,000, which is reasonable compared to cruise missiles which can cost an average of $1 million per missile.
By comparison, the Shahed costs (according to wikipedia): $193,000 for export version, and up to $50,000 for the domestic Iranian version.
Considering that, it's a good price per unit.

No one is scared of Putin.
Trump pushed for it; the others are reluctant to do it, but recognize that relying on the US for defense is foolish.
Has nothing to do with Putin or Russia, and if Putin and Russia are complaining about this, it just shows how insecure Russia actually is.
Just for disclosure: I have never, and will never trust Russia. The Iranian experience is further proof that the Russians cannot be trusted.

Footage of the repelling of an attack by Ukrainian UAVs on a train train near Tokmak in the Zaporizhia region. In the video, servicemen of the 42nd Guards Motorized Rifle Division of the Russian Armed Forces fire at drones with small arms. The type of Ukrainian UAVs is not reported.

The Russian army in the battles in Ukraine has begun to use kamikaze drones "Geran-2" with direct control by operators. The drone has a built-in 4G modem and a Ukrainian SIM card, thanks to which the drone can be used throughout the territory of Ukraine. Most often, drones are used to strike at temporary deployment points of the Ukrainian army located in buildings. The video shows drone attacks in the area of the settlement of Novoekonomicheskoe and in the area of the settlement of Shakhovo in the Yuzhno-Pokrovsk direction.

Rare footage, close-up from the ground, of a strike by a Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile. The Iskander-M missile struck a temporary Ukrainian army base in a building in the Odessa region of Ukraine. There is no more accurate data on the footage yet.

The Russian army launched a missile attack on a Ukrainian ammunition depot. Presumably, a Russian 300-mm GLONASS-guided 9M542 rocket from the Tornado-S MLRS was used in the attack. The location of the shooting is not reported. Judging by the power of the secondary explosion, the depot was completely filled with ammunition.
