Yep they should definitely put some radar guidance on those machine guns, maybe an IR tracker. I think we have some leftover really old AA systems which actually could be converted cheaply to help these guys, although the problem is how to shelter them, because a bigger antenna could actually fry them. Unfortunately I dont think we have off the shelf solutions for such shtty drones, so it requires some tinkering around. As it comes into my mind some of the old warsaw pact states maybe have their old MiG-21s around for salvage, those had a rudimentary targeting computer and a powerful tracking radar and machine gun config which would be a great improvement even if mounted into a ground platform. Maybe there are some lying around in Ukraine somewhere, it would be awesome, if Ukrainians could make a proof of concept, then I guess we could get them hundreds of those parts, if not thousands or if we get a detailed plan we can assemble the system and ship it down, unfortunately not a lot of people can handle old soviet tech anymore in NATO.
