Key Points

  • Quantum Cyber aims to vertically integrate by manufacturing a range of autonomous defense systems including drones, counter-UAS, and naval mine countermeasures.
  • The new U.S. manufacturing complex will feature advanced production facilities including PCB assembly, CNC and 3D printing workshops, enabling rapid fabrication and quality assurance.
  • Focus markets include federal government, Homeland Security, local government, and commercial sectors, reflecting rising demand for autonomous defense technologies.

WEST PALM BEACH, Florida, May 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quantum Cyber N.V. (Nasdaq: QUCY), a Nasdaq-listed autonomous defense technology company, today announced a strategic initiative to establish a U.S.-based defense-technology manufacturing complex intended to support the production and delivery of autonomous drone and defense systems to end customers across federal government, Homeland Security, local government, and commercial sectors.


Illustrations shown are conceptual and provided for marketing and visualization purposes only. Certain depicted systems, capabilities, payloads, specifications, and operational use cases may be under development, subject to change, or not currently commercially available.

The initiative reflects Quantum Cyber's planned transition from a technology development and licensing company to a vertically integrated defense platform with the goal of manufacturing and delivering combat-ready autonomous systems at scale. The planned facility is designed to support the Company's growing technology portfolio, which spans FPV drones, interceptor systems, counter-UAS platforms, autonomous ground vehicles, tethered surveillance systems, and naval mine countermeasure technologies.

The Company’s initial product line, developed through its technology licensing and acquisition program, includes the an advanced multi-platform unmanned aerial system with a range exceeding 25 kilometers, payload capacity of up to 3.0 kilograms, and autonomous takeoff, landing, and waypoint navigation with encrypted communications, designed for tactical operations, interception, and precision strike missions; a counter-UAS platform capable of speeds up to 350 kilometers per hour with operator-controlled terminal homing guidance, deployable from the ground or air-launched from a carrier drone; a lightweight tactical drone optimized for surveillance and precision engagement of ground targets; a Small Interceptor capable of speeds up to 220 kilometers per hour for rapid aerial neutralization; a Small Missile Launcher, a compact modular launcher supporting up to 8 missiles per platform with proximity sensor and remote detonation capability, effective at ranges up to 200 meters; and the Sky-Eye Aerial Repeater, a lightweight airborne signal relay system providing video and control transmission coverage up to 15 kilometers in complex and contested environments. The manufacturing complex is designed to bring in-house production capability across this entire product line and future additions to the Company’s portfolio.

"This is a pivotal step in our evolution," said David Lazar, Chief Executive Officer of Quantum Cyber. "We are not just acquiring and licensing technologies -- we are aiming to build the infrastructure to manufacture and deliver them. The forecasted demand from federal agencies, Homeland Security customers, and defense primes is real and it is growing. We intend to be ready to meet it."

The planned complex is expected to include dedicated drone assembly workshops, a PCB and electronics production line, a CNC and 3D printing workshop for rapid component fabrication, quality assurance and calibration facilities, and supporting cybersecurity and server infrastructure. The facility is designed to enable the Company to produce multiple categories of autonomous systems simultaneously, with capacity spanning drone, ground vehicle, and autonomous marine platforms.

The Company intends to provide further details on facility location, timeline, and production capacity as the initiative advances.
