Rimon Completes Delivery of First Containerized Launch System - a Mobile Tactical Platform for Elbit’s Active Defense Division
NEW YORK and NETANYA, Israel, June 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- T3 Defense Inc. (Nasdaq: DFNS) ("T3 Defense" or the "Company"), a defense company that acquires and operates mission-critical defense businesses, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Rimon Agencies Ltd. ("Rimon"), has made significant progress in the manufacturing and delivery of mobile operational systems developed for the Active Defense Division of IMI Systems (Elbit Group).
In response to the urgent operational need for rapid, mobile solutions against the growing drone threat, Rimon is currently completing the manufacturing and supply of advanced interceptor system platform - integrating independent energy management, active climate control, and a stabilized sensor array within a high-trafficability trailer configuration, enabling rapid deployment and sustained operations without reliance on fixed infrastructure.
Rimon, one of Israel's pioneering manufacturers of mobile command trailers and operational staging platforms, is responsible for the full architecture, engineering, and manufacturing of the purpose-built systems for the Active Defense Division. Following the successful delivery of the first operational unit, Rimon is now executing the delivery sequence for the remaining systems.
"The threat environment on Israel's northern front has fundamentally changed the way ground forces operate," said Menny Shalom, Chairman and CEO of T3 Defense. "Drones are no longer a future consideration, but a daily operational reality, and the ability to deploy counter-drone capabilities rapidly and reliably in the field is now decisive. The systems Rimon has engineered for this program are exactly that kind of solution: fully self-contained, field-ready platforms that put advanced aerial defense technology exactly where it needs to be, when it needs to be there. Rimon's ability to take a complex operational requirement and deliver a finished, mission-ready system entirely in-house is what makes this possible."
This program is designed to provide a rapid, mobile response to aerial threats facing IDF forces, with Rimon serving as the systems integrator responsible for translating complex operational requirements into fielded, mission-ready platforms. Rimon's engineering approach consolidates energy solutions, climate infrastructure, sensor staging, and tactical mobility into a single deployable unit, that enable defense operators to establish and redeploy counter-drone capabilities quickly across dynamic front-line environments.
