The UAV can be downed by EW or MANPAD, if it is large and carries missiles. A small kamikaze UAV is unlikely to be able to hit a quickly moving target.

The helicopters are seen once per several hours here and there. Hunting them would require producing a hundred or so of specialized drones - which is possible, but unlikely, considering that there is no way to test a prototype in action as none knows where and when the next helicopter will appear.
Concepts like that can be tested in a simulator, firstly, to outline requirements, tactics and mechanism, then field-test to improve it. Necessity is the mother of invention. The spinoff from that sort of weapon may have many applications.

I've seen a video where one came very close, all it needed was a sensor directed charge. It can definitely be done.
