Washington ¨C China-based DJI sued the U.S. Defense Department on Friday for adding the drone maker to a list of companies allegedly working with Beijing¡¯s military, saying the designation is wrong and has caused the company significant financial harm.
DJI, the world¡¯s largest drone manufacturer that sells more than half of all U.S. commercial drones, asked a U.S. District Judge in Washington to order its removal from the Pentagon list designating it as a ¡°Chinese military company,¡± saying it ¡°is neither owned nor controlled by the Chinese military.¡±
Being placed on the list represents a warning to U.S. entities and companies about the national security risks of conducting business with them.
