Blue UAS Framework components, and the parts around them
The Blue UAS Framework list names components and subsystems by maker and model. A builder working from it still buys the rest of the bill of materials, from the flight computer silicon to the connectors, through ordinary distribution. Gatewell USA sources that rest under NDAA-compliant sourcing and quotes the listed radios and companion computers to order through each maker's dealer channel.
What the list names
The Framework list is published through the Blue UAS program's portal and names each product by maker and model, with the date it was added, in categories such as radios, ground control stations, remote controllers, companion computers and cameras. A listing names the maker's product. It does not name a seller, and a part is on the list only if the list names it.

These are quoted to order through each maker's dealer channel on the systems page, by band, power, interface and the ground station a radio pairs with, or with the carrier, the storage and the enclosure a companion computer needs.
The parts around them
The flight computer silicon, the navigation stack, the datalink and RF chain, the power train and the wiring harness come from the line card by subsystem. Every part on it has a page with the maker, the package and the maker's headquarters country, and every maker passes the rule on the NDAA page. The country of origin of each lot is stated on the commercial invoice.
Questions
Is a part on your line card on the Blue UAS Framework list?
A part is on the list only if the list names it. The line card names the maker, the package and the maker's headquarters country for each part. The systems page names the listed radios, remote controllers and companion computers above.
Can you quote a Silvus, Microhard or Doodle Labs radio?
Yes, to order through the maker's dealer channel, by band, power, interface and the ground station it pairs with.
Can you quote a Jetson or Raspberry Pi companion computer with its carrier?
Yes, with the carrier, the storage and the enclosure you state.
Where does the rest of the bill of materials come from?
From authorized US distributors, line by line, under the maker rule on the NDAA page, with the country of origin of each lot on the commercial invoice.
How current is the list on this page?
It was read on September 25, 2026. The list changes, so name the listing that matters to your build on the request and it is checked against the list on the day the quote is issued.
Do you build or integrate Blue UAS platforms?
No. We source the parts and the subsystems. Integration stays with the builder.
