I think you're severely underestimating how much a photon torpedo with an antimatter warhead would cost. For reference, a modern day tomahawk cruise missile is estimated to cost nearly 1.5 million dollars. Using that as a reference (and of course things would probably cost less in the future, so this takes that into account), I'd say a normal MCM might cost around 60 million dollars. One of the EAF's telepedoes by comparison might be somewhere around the 1.2 billion dollar range, and antimatter warheads would be somewhere around the same if not a little more.
