The
drones
neccessarily
have
shorter
ranve
weapons,
if
any,
and
practically
no
armor.
You
also
cannot
use
AoE
because
the
sky
is
big.
An
obvious
approach
is
to
just
kill
them
with
accurate,
high
rate
of
fire,
longer
range
weapons
(
which
in
ZK
would
make
them
precise
riots
like
mace,
redback,
felon)

Do we see people try to do that IRL? Yes we do - there are multiple rnd programs that specifically aim to produce a drone-chopping laser. The question is whether it will be cheap enough, but then these drones also require a proper plane to drop them, and besides the fuel and pilot time will consume the opportunity cost of this plane doing a conventional run, so it is reasonable to think it might.
