OOC: They have thermal equipment, most UAC ships have a form of it

IC: Shield 1: Requesting assistance now!

Three Paris-class frigates appear in front of the drone's path, their 12,7cm point defense guns open fire (OOC: They have a rate of fire of an L/70 Bofors, check the Naval Archives for more info). While the smaller AA rail guns mounted on the frigates, specifically designed for faster aircraft begin to open fire.

Three more Paris-class frigates appear by the other longswords pursuing the other drones and turn on thermal imaging mounted on some of the exterior cameras.

Paris AI: A few contacts detected, going at speeds of Mach 3.5, requesting permission to open fire?

Paris commander: Open fire on them, all engines full speed.

Paris AI: This ship does not have that powerful thermal equipment sir, we will lose them in a few minutes

Paris commander: Notify other members of the Allies of our discovery, prepare our AA railgun systems, target each of those drones.

The AA railguns take aim at the fast drones, their targeting equipment would lose contact with them in 2 minutes due to the lack of proper thermal equipment on a Paris-class.

Paris AI: Targets locked, firing. Firing Archer missile, Pod 1, missiles 1-24

The ship opens fire, and 24 archer missiles fire off from their pod towards the drones.

OOC: You have two minutes for those guys to escape, as long as I don't send in people to block your path. The one drone alone will most likely die though
