A overall of 161 Shahed-136 drones, 1 larger sized Shahed-129 and four even more substantial unmanned attack vehicles regarded as Mohajer-6s have been shot down by Ukrainian air defences in the last month.
With the value of the Iranian-made Shahed-136s standing at €20,000 to €50,000 for every vehicle, the overall value to Russia of the unsuccessful drone assaults unleashed on Ukraine in modern weeks is believed by military services analysts at the NGO Molfar to be among $11.66m (£10.36m) and $17.9m (£15.9m).
