DJI is a privately held Chinese UAV and imaging company headquartered in Shenzhen. Its commercial Matrice, Mavic, and Phantom families anchor this catalog's builder facet for DJI-made aerial systems.

7 weapons

DJI was founded in 2006 and later built its main corporate presence in Shenzhen. The company describes itself as privately owned and operated, with product lines spanning consumer drones, enterprise UAVs, agriculture platforms, and supporting control and payload systems.

This builder catalog page groups the catalog's DJI-linked Matrice, Mavic, and Phantom entries under one manufacturer profile so the public catalog page can connect those systems back to the company that designed and sold them.

In Ukraine and Myanmar they became contested battlefield tools for surveillance, targeting support, and improvised strike tasks, with this catalog entry covering DJI-branded commercial UAVs rather than a single military model.

Its long-endurance airframe, RTK positioning, multi-gimbal payload options, and Zenmuse H20-series sensor compatibility made it useful as an off-the-shelf reconnaissance and observation UAV in wartime, with Ukrainian donor programs documenting Matrice 300 RTK transfers for front-line units during the 2014 Russia-Ukraine War.

Reporting from Ukraine and Gaza ties the method to improvised battlefield use by multiple sides, while a 2025 U.S. Army test with a Skydio X10D, an Audible dropper, and an M67 grenade shows the same concept moving into formal experimentation.
