A couple years back federal agencies were banned from purchasing/using certain Chinese manufactured drones. Now the Department of Defense announced five approved drone companies. This will be no doubt be a huge boon for the approved companies.
Via the Verge:
Today, the DoD’s Defense Innovation Unit is announcing not one, not two, but five such drones that have been tested, approved, and are now formally available for government use — including ones from formerly consumer-focused drone companies Skydio and Vantage (each based in California) and Parrot (based in France).
