Even decently fast glass won’t do a good job of capturing drones at night unless there’s a significant amount of ambient light.
And telephoto lenses with the range you mention with fast apertures are not exactly cheap. A 600mm F/4 goes for $12-15K and is still not fast enough for shooting moving subjects in the dark.
