Critical Infra enters increased scope MOU with Babcock

Mr. Brenton Scott reports CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE TECHNOLOGIES LTD. AND BABCOCK INTERNATIONAL GROUP EXECUTE AN INCREASED SCOPE MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING (MOU) Critical Infrastructure Technologies Ltd. has entered into an increased scope memorandum of understanding with Babcock International Group to co-develop and build a rapidly deployable platform integrating 5G communications, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, and counterunmanned aerial system capabilities for not only the Ukrainian Armed Forces, but now also for all of Europe and Southeast Asia. The original MOU agreement, signed at the DSEI (Defence and Security Equipment International) expo in London in September, 2025, was put in place for both companies to work exclusively on the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence request to supply 50 of Critical Infrastructure's Nexus 20 platforms. The increased scope MOU expands the regions of collaboration to include all of Europe together with Southeast Asia, given the significant opportunities that exist for the Nexus 20 platform across these regions. "It is fantastic to expand the scope of collaboration with Babcock and to now work together to promote the Nexus 20 into the new regions added," said Brenton Scott, chief executive officer of Critical Infrastructure. "With our first Nexus 20 due to arrive in the EU in April, 2026, for whole of region demonstrations, we are looking forward to 2026 with confidence." About Critical Infrastructure Technologies Ltd. Listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange with operations in Perth, Western Australia, Critical Infrastructure is creating autonomous, high-capacity, rapidly deployable technology that delivers essential services to where they are needed most. Critical Infrastructure is targeting the mining, defence, border security/surveillance and emergency service sectors in relation to its first product release, the Nexus 16, which aims to provide critical mobile telecommunications for such sectors. Using patented technologies, Critical Infrastructure's self-deploying platform provides a solution for two of the greatest limitations of current rapidly deployable communication solutions: strength of the tower and ability to rapidly self-deploy and operate, in numerous situations. The SDP is designed to support radio equipment including LTE (long-term evolution) and several other technological payloads, such as surveillance and anti-drone systems. Critical Infrastructure has completed the research and development phase, and is currently commercializing the first of many products that will be released. We seek Safe Harbor.
