Drone Compare Blue UAS drones
19 drones on DroneCompare are marked Blue UAS Cleared or Blue Select.
The Blue UAS Cleared List names the drones the US Department of Defense has cleared for its use after checks of their supply chain, cyber security and foreign ownership. The Defense Contract Management Agency has kept the list since December 2025, when it took it over from the Defense Innovation Unit. Blue UAS Select was a mark the Defense Innovation Unit gave to cleared drones that a service had chosen or sponsored. AUVSI's Green UAS is a cyber security and supply chain certification; since July 2025, a drone that completes it is added to the Blue UAS Cleared List. Check the official list before you buy.
