By 1995 we had Linux, Apple and Windows PC, the first 64 bit chips were produced.

So, would it be possible for some to even envision drone warfare and how would it evolve, till the EMP would shut them down?
And would a comeback later possible?
We also had the TOW and HOT missiles among others, so some drone control was already there.

I could envision the same kind of drones used for spotting/Artillery observation such as those used in the First Gulf War-large, relatively clunky and were famously caught in a net when their mission was over.
By the time of the Twilight War, the drones might be a little smaller but still used for observation and spotting primarily. Then following the widespread use of tactical and strategic nuclear weapons they would become progressively rarer.
