I'd expect it to be easier with a jet engine than propellers? Just use a steel cable net. Speaking of which, maybe if you use a close-mesh metallic net (maybe in addition to a coarse one for trapping), you'd break its uplink without any need for active electronic warfare?

All you'd have to do is to damage the propeller. A jet engine would probably run until there is no more fuel. I don't know how they did it, but, with the right incentive, any reasonably clever engineer would manage to do it.

It's a very unfortunate mistake to underestimate your opponents enough to give them your secret stealth drone.
