This is the beginning of the end for the high effectiveness of shaheds for their cost, which isn’t to say they will go away but helicopters and to a lesser extent affordable fixed wing aircraft are nearly ideal for hunting waves of shaheds.

Shaheeds are good because they are cheap and easier to produce than intercepting technologies.
Making it more expensive and complex to deploy would still be a win.
It would be at the cost of those planes and helicopters you send up to intercept Shaheds. That may not be a win on the net.
