Radar is not the only solution to find target for a heat seeking missile and no other drone in Iran inventory can reach the speed of karrar the next ones are Arash and shahed 171 that have between half to 1/3rd the speed of karrar . so they are not that suitable for the role.Come on man, sidewinder fired from a drone that lacks radar is a joke and not a threat to a modern fighter jet maybe another drone.
by the way if they went and installed a gun on the drone they probably think somehow they can detect aerial target and lock on them .for example infra Red. by what I see Karrar now have drone hunting capabilities something that yet to be shown by Quds aviation drones don't forget during the Zolfaqar 99 military drill in Jask, it was Karrar that had successfully tracked three American drones (types RQ-4, MQ-9, P-8) and forced them to leave the drills' public area.
another example of HESA capabilities is Ababil drone armed with Diamond missile that make it quiet dangerous to enemy armor .
to me the only thing they are behind is low radar cross section and it seems they are working on that
