I suppose it depends on how the UAV behaves when jammed and the nature of the jamming. Does the jamming simply cut off remote control and guidance data? Then yes, the impact still happens. Instead does the jamming give false navigation data (altered GPS signals) where the drone will wrongly "correct" its path and end missing the target?
I'm not a drone pilot, but I don't think those winged suicide drones will turn on a dime, even if the jamming is the equivalent of a full up and right.
