One option I've considered is using a vehicle (VTOL or ground) with
large
#'s of GMS to take out ZADS vehicles, since few people I know load a PDS
on
top of a ZADS on the same vehicle (Myself excluded), and you can
overwhelm
an ADS. But that requires a special "ADS Killer" and that gets into a
loop
too.
