I disagree..If it wasn't a Chinese drone used by PLA,Chinese company would sure come up with their data that where it was sold and such.India isn't fool enough to use a "Chinese Drone" for recon.we do have other drones for similar role.

in fact,that company itself is saying the same..


Ours Netra is militarized drone for the similar purpose,but much more capable..

Bad defense. DJI just stated the fact that they did not sell their products to any GOVERNMENT, but you could have bought that DJI quad copter from Taobao, or ebay, and used it for recon mission.

yup,but in that case,DJI should publish to whom it was sold..then the picture would clear real soon.But as I said,in India,no government agency uses any kind of chinese drones as we fear for "Information Leak"..our police and other Paramilitary units/Army uses mainly DRDO made drones,and these are far more capable and cheap.

If this drone was Indian origin,the controversy wouldn't died down so easily.

anyway...

DJI Phantom-3 can't be used for military purpose as their range is way too short(Phantom-2's maximum range was 1000 ft,most users used it upto 700 ft at max)..This new variant is somewhat improved(manufacture claim it is somewhat around 1 km,altitude )..even though it is good for civilian uses,it doesn't fit into military category..

now compare it to Netra UAV,which has double range..
