A drone hitting a helicopter by chance is so astronomically unlikely its not even worth considering. If it was there then it was trying to hit the helicopter. Its not like a road where there is a shared path, its the fucking air where there are practically infinite paths for a drone to take.
You're making it sound like they are in completely arbitrary positions around the region, but if they are both in the vicinity of targets, like the helicopter is meant to defend, and the drone is meant to attack, then the chances go up significantly.
