The advancement of wireless networking has significantly enhanced beamforming capabilities in Autonomous Unmanned Aerial Systems (AUAS). This paper presents a simple and efficient classical algorithm to route a collection of AUAS or drone swarms extending our previous work on AUAS. The algorithm is based on the sparse factorization of frequency Vandermonde matrices that correspond to each drone, and its entries are determined through spatiotemporal data of drones in the AUAS. The algorithm relies on multibeam beamforming, making it suitable for large-scale AUAS networking in wireless communications. We show a reduction in the arithmetic and time complexities of the algorithm through theoretical and numerical results. Finally, we also present an ML-based AUAS routing algorithm using the classical AUAS algorithm and feed-forward neural networks. We compare the beamformed signals of the ML-based AUAS routing algorithm with the ground truth signals to minimize the error between them. The numerical error results show that the ML-based AUAS routing algorithm enhances the accuracy of the routing. This error, along with the numerical and theoretical results for over 100 drones, provides the basis for the scalability of the proposed ML-based AUAS algorithms for large-scale deployments.
