DOD Mum on DJI Lawsuit Challenging Military Company Designation

A Pentagon spokesperson declined to comment on a lawsuit filed this month by Chinese drone-maker DJI Technology Co., saying in an Oct. 22 email the agency “does not provide information or statements regarding any pending litigation matters.” DJI is challenging the Pentagon's designation of the firm as a Chinese military company (see 2410210038) following similar successful challenges by other firms based in China (see 105070015, 2105120047 and 2105240053).
