I think with pilots would amount to, in practice, a declaration of war from Sweden to Russia. So that's not going to happen. And since Sweden applied for NATO membership, it's not even a theoretical possibility at this point I'd say.
But even without pilots, and crewed by Ukrainian pilots lacking training on the system, I think the ability to lob 100 km range missiles over the horizen, has to be worth something.
