You need DIRCM(and added dazzlers) for that; drones are not a bigger threat to helicopters than MANPADS. On the contrary introducing lots of small pellets around where helicopters are flying is one sure way to increase friendly fire rates.
Things are far from finished to be honest. We haven't seen the end of war yet.
