I think most people like slightly different designs for swarmers it's something you have to feel out for yourself but most (not all) swarmers cost between 2000 and 5000 creds when they are done.

here you go khalilos, hope this helps:
swarmers max out at different levels, somewhere between 8k and 22k ships per fleet. the smaller the hull of the ship, the more swarm bonus and the more ships it takes to max out. if u are starting out designing ur own swarmers, i suggest u take something between a 15-30 hull. give it an armor that weights 8 and gives 399 hp. thats is a standard armor for small swarmers. the rest is up to you.
if u want to use big swarmers, which can eventually be more efficient, but cost more money to max, u should try giving them multiple weapons. if u have any questions that i can answer id be happy to.
and basil, swarmers in wars cost anywhere between 1.500 credits and 5.000.000 credits. the smallest swarmer i use weighs 427 and costs 70.672 per. SMALL HULL swarmers ideally cost between the numbers u gave.

size 15 hull is 22k ships for max bonus and it goes down as hull gets larger to bottom of 8k for max bonus
and as I said most NOT ALL swarmers are in the price range of 2k-5k above that they are usually considered superswarmers which have there uses also
