I think the ideal scenario is when you do not destroy the other drone, but take full control of it. Or just take it down (or with you, depending on the location), and at the very least repurpose it for parts for your own drones.

Otherwise very much agree.

That depends on what kind of drone it is.

If it's a cheap kamikaze drone laden with explosives that might detonate before you can disarm it, then no.

If it's an expensive high quality DJI with high resolution cameras and thermal vision, then maybe.

Bringing in a live drone that can be tracked or even just viewed through the camera might reveal your location to the enemy, and attract enemy suicide drones.

Great observation, I didn’t think of it!
