Critical Infra starts Nexus system production

Mr. Brenton Scott reports CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE TECHNOLOGIES LTD. ADVANCES PRODUCTION OF NEXUS PLATFORMS FOLLOWING AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT GRANT SUCCESS Steel fabrication has commenced on the first three Nexus platforms, following Critical Infrastructure Technologies Ltd.'s successful Australian government grant application. Production is now under way for Nexus 1, 2 and 3, with two additional platforms scheduled to follow. Delivery into CiTech's production facility is expected as follows: Nexus 1 and 2 -- within 10 weeks; Nexus 3 -- end of January, 2026. Upon receipt, each Nexus platform will undergo final fit out, with completion expected within four to six weeks. Demonstrations and strategic engagements Once completed, demonstrations and/or pilot programs of the Nexus platform will be carried out with: Major mining companies in Western Australia; The Australian Defence Force (ADF); Emergency services departments. These demonstrations in Australia will showcase the platform's versatility across mining, defence, emergency services and critical infrastructure. Future production and international road map Production of Nexus 4 and 5 is scheduled to commence in November, 2025, with one of the platforms to be shipped directly to Poland for final fit out. This unit will then embark on a European product road show in March/April, 2026, given the significant interest the company has received, engaging defence, government and industry stakeholders across the European Union. "This milestone reflects the momentum behind the Nexus program, supported by the Australian government and our global partners," said Brenton Scott, chief executive officer of CiTech. "The upcoming demonstrations and international engagements will highlight the capability of the Nexus platform to deliver innovative solutions for defence, border security and surveillance, emergency services, and the mining sector."
