The Pentagon says it's seeking to recruit investors to invest in American small drones to provide an alternative to Chinese models

Washington The Pentagon on Monday said it was seeking to recruit investors to invest in American small drones to provide an alternative to Chinese models, the first effort under a new Defense Department program aimed at linking"trusted" sources of private capital with"innovative companies critical to defense industrial base and national security."

Ellen Lord, the Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment, told reporters Monday that the Trust Capital Marketplace, as the program is officially known, will focus first on investment for small drones because it is a technology that everyone can understand and Chinese companies currently dominate their manufacture.
