In an era where data sovereignty and supply chain security are just as critical as flight performance, the tools we choose matter more than ever. For government agencies, defense contractors, and private enterprises handling sensitive data, the standard for hardware is shifting.
We are proud to announce that the Dutchwing DW-10 is fully NDAA compliant.
What is NDAA Compliance?
The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) involves a set of federal laws in the United States that specifies the budget and expenditures of the U.S. Department of Defense. Specifically, Section 889 of the NDAA prohibits federal agencies and their contractors from procuring or using telecommunications and video surveillance equipment from certain banned manufacturers (often linked to foreign adversaries).
While this is a U.S. regulation, it has become a global benchmark for security. "NDAA Compliant" effectively means our technology is free from components produced by these banned entities, ensuring a trusted supply chain that meets the rigorous standards required for defense and critical infrastructure projects. The Dutchwing Advantage: European engineering, global trust!
The market has long been saturated with platforms that rely heavily on non-compliant components. The Dutchwing DW-10 breaks that mold.

By designing and manufacturing the DW-10 in the Netherlands, we maintain strict control over our supply chain. Our compliance is not just a badge; it is a promise of:
Data Security With no "black box" components from banned vendors, you can trust that sensitive mapping and surveillance data remains in your control.
Government Eligibility The DW-10 is ready for deployment in U.S. federal projects, NATO-aligned defense operations, and other sensitive sectors where Chinese-manufactured equivalents are prohibited.
Operational Continuity As regulations tighten globally regarding drone hardware, investing in compliant technology creates a future-proof fleet that won't be grounded by new legislative bans.
Uncompromised Performance
Compliance doesn't mean compromising on capability. The DW-10 remains a class-leading fixed-wing platform designed for endurance and precision:
Ready for the Future
Whether you are conducting critical infrastructure inspections, defense surveillance, or high-precision mapping, you need a platform that is as secure as it is capable. Our DW-10 offers the peace of mind that comes with European craftsmanship and full NDAA compliance.
Fly with confidence. Fly Dutchwing.
