I guess that a limitation for an aircraft to jam drones is that with enough powerful RF, it might jam its own links. So manned aircraft may be the answer.
From Avweb:


Ukraine has reportedly added a drone-fighting LSA to its fleet of warplanes. In a report from the Paris Air Show, YouTuber Ate Chuet says the ULM Shark, a speedy light aircraft made in the Czech Republic, has been equipped with drone detection and jamming gear to fight against the Russian drones that have become one of the biggest threats in the current conflict. The Shark can reach speeds of more than 160 knots behind either a Rotax 912 ULS or 914 engine. It can also loiter for as long as 12 hours.
