HUNTSVILLE, Alabama — The Army wants to include foreign allies in its soon-to-launch online drone marketplace designed for units and service members to acquire equipment and parts, according to Army Secretary Dan Driscoll.

This marketplace will effectively be like a spin-off of Amazon — and the Army is doing this in partnership with Amazon Web Services — in which drone manufacturers proven to be compliant with U.S. regulations can have their products listed on the website for units, both American and foreign, to order directly from the Army. It is expected to go online next month.
