Presidential Executive Order Directs DoD to Field Quantum Sensors by 2028, Build Domestic Quantum Supply Chains, and Advance National Security Quantum Computing Aligns with QUCY’s Quantum Antenna and Other Technologies
WEST PALM BEACH, Florida, June 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quantum Cyber N.V. (Nasdaq: QUCY) ("Quantum Cyber" or the "Company"), a Nasdaq-listed autonomous defense technology company assembling an AI-powered System-of-Systems platform for drone warfare, counter-UAS, and border security applications, today announced that its existing technology platform, patent portfolio, domestic manufacturing initiative, and corporate strategy are directly aligned with the priorities established by President Donald J. Trump's Executive Order on Quantum Information Science and Technology, signed June 22, 2026 (the "Quantum EO"). The announcement follows the Company's recent leadership delegation to Washington, D.C., which included high-level engagements on Capitol Hill and at Pentagon City with U.S. government officials, military stakeholders, and members of Congress.
D.C. Delegation: Capitol Hill and Senior Government Officials
Over the past several days, Quantum Cyber's leadership delegation traveled to Washington, D.C. for a series of high-level government engagements. Chief Executive Officer David Lazar met directly with congressmen and officials to discuss the evolving homeland security needs facing the United States and the role that autonomous defense technology can play to address these requirements. The delegation also held meetings with senior government officials across the fields of cybersecurity and homeland security. Mr. Lazar was joined by members of Quantum Cyber's technology and business leadership team.
"These were substantive conversations, and I believe they reflect growing recognition at the federal level that domestically manufactured, AI-powered autonomous platforms are central to the United States' near-term defense and security posture," said David Lazar, Chief Executive Officer of Quantum Cyber N.V. "We plan to continue cultivating these relationships as we advance our platform. The Executive Order signed by President Trump the very next day reiterated what we heard in those rooms.
The Quantum EO directs a whole-of-government acceleration of quantum computing, quantum sensing, and quantum networking, with explicit mandates for the U.S. Department of Defense to field next-generation quantum sensor projects by September 30, 2028, establish programs advancing national security quantum computing readiness, and strengthen domestic quantum supply chains through private sector partnerships and advance market commitments. The EO further directs the protection of U.S. quantum technology companies from foreign competition and establishes mechanisms to expand access to DoD-sponsored quantum foundry resources.
Quantum Cyber believes its current technology portfolio is substantively responsive to the priorities enumerated in the Quantum EO. The Company's exclusively licensed quantum photonic array antenna technology, developed by Wolf Kohn, PhD, and secured through a definitive IP License Agreement with Project LightShift, Inc., is directly relevant to the EO's mandate to field quantum sensor and quantum networking capabilities for defense drone applications. The Company's quantum-navigated autonomous vehicle platform, its provisional patent portfolio covering autonomous naval mine countermeasures, swarm defense architectures, and EMP-shielded drone systems, and its planned Bridgeport, Connecticut manufacturing facility each respond to specific directives within the Quantum EO.
Bridgeport, Connecticut: Domestic Manufacturing as a Quantum Defense Asset
On June 8, 2026, Quantum Drones Corporation -- Quantum Cyber's wholly owned U.S. defense subsidiary -- signed a Letter of Intent to acquire a 43,000-square-foot manufacturing facility and industrial equipment in Bridgeport, Connecticut for an aggregate purchase price of
The Bridgeport facility, upon the closing of its acquisition, is expected to directly advance the Quantum EO's Section 6 mandate to strengthen domestic quantum supply chains and partner with the private sector through advance market commitments. The co-location of filament manufacturing, drone assembly, and EMP-hardened component production within a single U.S.-controlled facility reflects the Company's strategy of achieving vertical integration across its entire production stack -- from raw material to finished autonomous system -- consistent with the Trump Administration's Executive Order 14307 on American drone dominance and the DoD's FY2027 allocation of approximately
QUCY's Quantum EO Alignment Matrix
The Company's platform addresses the following enumerated Quantum EO directives:
- Section 5(a): DoD directed to identify and field next-generation quantum sensor projects by September 30, 2028 -- directly relevant to QUCY's quantum photonic array antenna technology and quantum-navigated autonomous systems.
- Section 4(d): DoD directed to establish programs advancing national security quantum computing readiness -- relevant to QUCY's quantum-accelerated drone navigation and swarm coordination architecture.
- Section 6: Federal mandate to strengthen domestic quantum supply chains and partner with private sector through advance market commitments -- directly applicable to QUCY's planned Bridgeport, Connecticut manufacturing initiative and vertically integrated production strategy.
- Section 9: Protections for U.S. quantum technology companies against foreign competition, including harmonization of export controls -- supports QUCY's competitive positioning as a U.S.-listed, domestically manufacturing quantum defense platform.
