that is called a missile, not a drone. no consumer uav are doing what you are suggesting, and different uav respond to jamming in a huge variety of ways.

I know most consumer drones land automatically if they lose connection. Anyone that is trying to raw dog a plot like this with an unmodified drone they pulled off the shelf from Best Buy is a special type of idiot.
