Not even $2M. Have you seen the footage of the UA/TDF using civilian quadrotor drones to drop anti-tank hand grenades on vehicles? As long as the radio spectrum is open, these type of attacks will be very hard to stop.

  anti-tank hand grenades  are obsolete. 
  The only use is to somehow get them to detonate under the tank and pray it will do something.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-tank_grenade At best they are used not against tanks but against light armored vehicles like "Humvees, Strykers and MRAPs " without any armor upgrades

Tell that to the tanks being destroyed as I described. These drones are dropping RKG-1600 grenades on to the top of Russia's top tanks and destroying them.

Wikipedia is not always a good source for military information, FYI...
