Consider those Iranian kamikaze drone attacks upon vital Ukrainian infrastructure that cost-effectiveness as compared to that of the German V-1 flying-bomb of the Second World War.

Cost of a Shahed-136 Iranian kamikaze drone during the Ukraine Conflict estimated be to be between $30,000 USD and $50,000 USD.

The cost of a Shahed-136 contrasted with the famous V-1 German buzz-bomb cruise missile. All thanks here to the wiki!

1. German V-1 "Buzz Bomb" WW2.

Return on Investment.

"Each V-1 cost about 5,000 Reichsmarks or $2,000 in 1944 (that’s the equivalent of about [$33,000 today].The 21-foot-long flying bombs were made mostly from sheet metal and plywood. Each took about 350 labour-hours to produce. Concentration camp inmates and slave laborers toiling at the Gerhard Fieseler Werke plant in Kassel did most of the assembly work."

Further the American analog of the V-1 as would have seen extensive action [?] in the Pacific theater of WW2 if the war had persisted beyond 1945.

2. American JB-2 WW2. American analog of the German V-1.

"JB-2 was being delivered by early 1945. After the end of the war in Europe it was in consideration for use against Japan. General Hap Arnold of the United States Army Air Forces was concerned that this weapon could be built of steel and wood, in 2,000 man-hours and approximate cost of US$600 (in 1943)."

Cost to build today about $10,000 USD.

"To put this in perspective, a single Boeing B-29 Superfortress airframe (based on program costs) cost about 126 times as much per ton of explosive delivered, not including the much higher costs for injured or killed aircrew, fuel, maintenance, bombs, ammunition, repairs, training and accidents, and despite being reusable, almost never accomplished enough missions to even approach covering just the production costs"

AMERICAN ASSESSMENT OF THE FLYING-BOMB QUITE FAVORABLE! ENTHUSIASTICALLY POSITIVE WITH REGARD TO RETURN ON INVESTMENT [ROI]!
