FAQs

What does NDAA-compliant mean for drones and components? 

NDAA compliance refers to meeting the requirements of the U.S. National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), specifically Section 848 of the FY20 NDAA and its updates through FY25. It prohibits federal agencies from purchasing or operating drones and components made by certain foreign entities, primarily to reduce security risks. NDAA-compliant drones use only approved hardware and software from trusted sources.

What does secure supply chain mean?

A secure supply chain refers to sourcing, manufacturing, and assembling hardware through trusted suppliers with transparent and traceable production processes. In the drone industry, this means prioritizing components from domestic and allied manufacturers while avoiding suppliers from high-risk regions. The goal is to ensure the reliability, security, and integrity of hardware used in mission-critical systems.
