The torpedo unit production costs from approximately $1.2-$1.4M million apiece. I can't see the warhead costing 40+ times the cost of a tomahawk though, even for a nuke configuration. A mk48 adcap with 650lb HE warhead only cost 2.5 million.

Your right I miss read the data sheet in 1999 26 were purchased for 52.8 mill.

Cost estimates for this weapon (MK48) are around $2 million each, rising to almost $3 million in some cases with upgrades factored in. source
