The russians weren't so bad with war, one would think jet drones with manpads on them could deal with helicopters.

Yes, sensing, command and control and all that. But it should be possible to set a trap with some mission planning. I guess there is also the problem of poor industry limiting what what can be done.
 
It seems drone interceptors haven't worked ,now a SPAAG will be used to try and defend the Kiev bridge from steel cutting gerans

The anti-drone technology in this particular case would be locating the mesh repeaters and elimination of the russian spies.

''Operatives'' are most likely disgruntled Ukrainians with some encouragement from Russian services. Similar to saboteurs in Russia are mostly Russians extorted online or in for financial gain.

Relatives of monthly 30k kidnapped ''volunteers'' shipped of to front lines make for a huge talent pool

"The device provides 360-degree protection through two broadband jammers operating in the 2.1-2.8 GHz range. They can jam Russian FPV drones without interfering with the platform's own Starlink communication link.

The device weighs about 2.4 kg, according to Dignitas Fund, which is working on the EW system alongside the manufacturer. If the system's final tests are successful, it is slated for mass production."
