Parrot has been chosen to build lightweight, fast-assembling reconnaissance aircraft for the US military. The French drone firm is one of six companies chosen for the project and will receive an undisclosed fee to develop prototype devices capable of flying for 30 minutes at a range of up to 3km. The project specifically excludes the world's largest drone manufacturer, DJI, as the US continues to escalate its trade war with China.
