IIRC, DJI was on the DoD banned list back in 2017. IIRC, the security concern was that they were "phoning home" detailed terrain mapping data - and supposedly at a level of detail that the drone itself doesn't even need in order to fly. If true, instead of having to spend several $B in high end spy satellites, just sell a commercial product where its customers will pay you for the privilege of doing the work of mil-grade data collection for you. -hh |

IIRC, the security concern was that they were "phoning home" detailed terrain mapping data - and supposedly at a level of detail that the drone itself doesn't even need in order to fly. The DOD wasn't worried about "detailed terrain mapping data" they were worried about operational data from (mainly) the GPS/GLONASS receivers. Such data could obviously compromise field operations. The US' topo data is openly available in high resolution already.
