Quantum Cyber Entering Steady-State Scale Production, Launches Vertically Integrated Advanced Filament Manufacturing Division
June 11, 2026
Quantum Cyber (Nasdaq: QUCY) plans to launch an Advanced Filament Manufacturing Division at its Connecticut defense manufacturing complex, tied to a planned U.S. facility acquisition.
The division will vertically integrate 3D-printing materials, supplying an 80-printer drone farm and selling patented EMP-hardened Formula A filament to defense customers.
Positive:
• Creation of Advanced Filament Manufacturing Division supporting vertical integration and margin strategy
• Dual-line operation supplying standard PETG and patented EMP-hardened Formula A filament
• Internal captive demand from planned 80-unit 3D printer drone production farm
• Filed non-provisional U.S. patent application for EMP-shielding composite filament on May 19, 2026
• Potential external revenue from EMP-hardened filament sales to defense industry customers
• Positioning as domestic producer aligned with Executive Order 14307 and DoD FY2027 drone budget
Company Plans to Establish Dual-Line Production Operation Supplying Standard PETG and Patented EMP-Hardened Composite Filament to 80-Unit 3D Printers for Drone Production Farm; No Domestic Competitor Offers Comparable Broadband EMP/EMI Shielding in FDM-Compatible Format
WEST PALM BEACH, Florida, June 11, 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 plans to establish an Advanced Filament Manufacturing Division within its Connecticut defense technology manufacturing complex, in connection with the Company's previously announced plans to acquire a U.S.-based manufacturing facility. The division is designed to supply proprietary 3D-printing materials to the Company's planned 80-3D Printer drone production farm and to serve as a direct revenue-generating operation through external sales of the Company's patented EMP-hardened composite filament to defense industry customers.
Vertical Integration as a Margin Strategy
The establishment of internal filament manufacturing represents a deliberate step in Quantum Cyber's transition from a technology development and licensing platform to a vertically integrated defense manufacturer. By producing its own 3D-printing materials in-house, the Company eliminates external sourcing costs for drone component fabrication, protects its proprietary formulations from competitive intelligence exposure, and creates a direct profit center from defense-grade materials that carry no domestic equivalent at equivalent performance and price.
EMP-Hardened Formula A: Patented, Unmatched, First-Mover
The high-value driver of the manufacturing division is Line 2: the production of Formula A, the Company's patented EMP-shielding composite filament. On May 19, 2026, Quantum Cyber filed a non-provisional utility patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for the Electromagnetic Pulse Shielding Composite Filament for Fused Deposition Modeling and Method of Manufacture Thereof, establishing an intellectual property position that management believes no current domestic competitor can replicate in an FDM-compatible commercial format.
Formula A is a multi-component thermoplastic composite formulated from a PETG polymer matrix combined with aluminum flake, carbonyl iron powder, carbon black, and milled carbon fiber. When processed through a standard fused deposition modeling printer, the material produces drone enclosures and electronics housings achieving broadband shielding effectiveness of 35 to 55 dB across the full frequency range of 10 kHz to 10 GHz, as measured per ASTM D4935. This is not partial or single-band shielding: it is full-spectrum electromagnetic protection from the low-frequency range through microwave frequencies -- the range relevant to EMP events, high-altitude nuclear detonations, non-nuclear electromagnetic devices, and high-power microwave weapons.
80-Unit 3D Lab Drone Production Farm: The Captive Demand Engine
The immediate application of the manufacturing division's output is the Company's planned 80-unit 3D Printing drone production farm, which will be installed within the Connecticut facility as the primary autonomous drone manufacturing operation. The printer farm provides captive demand for both standard PETG filament and Formula A EMP-hardened material, ensuring base utilization of both production lines from commissioning. This internal consumption anchor de-risks the manufacturing economics: Line 1 is fully absorbed by internal drone component production, while Line 2 generates internal material supply for EMP-hardened drone enclosures with surplus available for external defense industry sales.
The co-location of filament manufacturing, drone assembly, and EMP-hardened component production within a single Connecticut facility reflects the Company's stated strategy of achieving vertical integration across its entire production stack -- from raw material to finished autonomous system -- enabling the Company to control quality, cost, and delivery timelines without dependence on external suppliers.
Strategic Alignment With U.S. Defense Manufacturing Priorities
The Advanced Filament Manufacturing Division directly advances the Trump Administration's priorities under Executive Order 14307, which establishes American drone dominance as an explicit industrial and national security objective and directs the acceleration of domestic drone production infrastructure. The U.S. Department of Defense FY2027 Budget Request allocates approximately $55 billion toward drone and autonomous warfare programs, with domestic manufacturing capacity identified as a critical enablement requirement. Quantum Cyber's investment in vertical manufacturing infrastructure positions the Company to participate in this procurement wave as a domestic producer, not merely a technology licensor.
The EMP-hardened filament capability is particularly aligned with documented Pentagon requirements. Electromagnetic pulse resilience for autonomous drone platforms has been identified as an unresolved gap across deployed drone programs; the Company's patented Formula A addresses this gap with a manufacturable, deployable solution compatible with standard production equipment.
"We are building the infrastructure to manufacture autonomous defense systems at scale, and the filament division via 3D Printers is how we control one of the most critical input material in the entire production stack," said David Lazar, Chief Executive Officer of Quantum Cyber. "

(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 an expansion of its existing relationship with BP United Inc. ("BP United"), the developer of autonomous unmanned vehicle systems that form the foundation of the Company's autonomous drone platform.
Quantum Cyber Assumes Direct Manufacturing Control
The Company and BP United have executed a First Amendment to the Intellectual Property License Agreement dated May 12, 2026 (the "Amendment"), pursuant to which the parties have agreed that Quantum Cyber will assume direct responsibility for the manufacturing of licensed drone products, superseding the commercial supply arrangement originally contemplated under the License Agreement.
BP United will provide Quantum Cyber with ongoing technical assistance and consulting services, including access to qualified manufacturing personnel, technical documentation, formulations, standard operating procedures, and on-call engineering support. Quantum Cyber retains full discretion to establish and operate its own manufacturing facilities, engage third-party contract manufacturers, and scale production in accordance with its commercialization strategy.
The Amendment preserves in full the exclusive perpetual license to BP United's autonomous drone technology portfolio granted under the original License Agreement, including the right to make, have made, use, sell, import, and otherwise exploit licensed products across the licensed territory.
Strategic Rationale: Vertical Integration Toward Manufacturing
The Amendment reflects the Company's previously announced strategic initiative to transition from a technology development and licensing platform toward a vertically integrated autonomous defense manufacturer. In May 2026, Quantum Cyber announced plans to establish a U.S.-based defense-technology manufacturing complex designed to support in-house production of autonomous drone and defense systems across the federal government, Homeland Security, and commercial customers.
By assuming direct manufacturing responsibility for its licensed drone platform, the Company advances that transition, removing third-party supply chain dependency and positioning Quantum Cyber to control quality, production timelines, and cost structure as it scales toward delivery of combat-ready autonomous systems.
BP United Executes Voting Agreement, Aligning Interests With Quantum Cyber
Concurrent with the Amendment, BP United has entered into a Voting Agreement with Quantum Cyber, pursuant to which BP United has agreed, for a two-year term, to vote all ordinary shares of the Company it holds or may acquire in favor of any proposal recommended by Quantum Cyber's Board of Directors. The agreement includes an irrevocable proxy granted in favor of Quantum Cyber and is binding on any successors or transferees of BP United's shares.
The Voting Agreement reinforces the alignment of interests between Quantum Cyber and its technology partner, providing the Company's Board of Directors with governance support as it executes its platform assembly strategy.
"The amendment to our BP United agreement is a direct expression of our commitment to vertical integration," said David Lazar, Chief Executive Officer. "We are not building a licensing company. We are building a manufacturing platform, and taking direct control of production of the drone technology at the core of our portfolio is the logical next step in that build. BP United's technical support, combined with our own manufacturing infrastructure, gives us the supply chain discipline and operational control that a defense platform of this scale requires."

Full Release
WEST PALM BEACH, Florida, May 27, 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 the filing of a provisional patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office covering a Coaxial Dual-Propellant Grain Solid Rocket Motor (the “CDPG-SRM”) engineered to extend the operational range and mission endurance of unmanned aerial vehicles across defense, border security, and autonomous warfare applications.
A Structural Shift in U.S. Defense Procurement -- and Where the CDPG-SRM Fits
The commercial significance of this filing is notable as U.S. defense procurement is undergoing a shift toward low-cost, long-range autonomous systems deployed at scale -- and range extension through propulsion is one of the documented bottlenecks limiting that transition.
Executive Order 14307 establishes American drone dominance as an explicit industrial and national-security priority, directing the acceleration of domestic drone production, expanded exports of U.S.-made systems, and the enablement of more advanced autonomous operations. Concurrently, the Department of Defense's (the “DoD”) budget for the 2027 fiscal year proposes an estimated $54 billion to $75 billion in allocations toward drones, autonomous warfare, and counter-UAS systems -- a commitment that reflects a fundamental change in how the Pentagon intends to fight.
Central to that doctrine is the concept of "attritable" drones: inexpensive, expendable autonomous platforms deployable in mass rather than in limited numbers. DoD programs including Replicator and the Defense Autonomous Warfare Group are operationalizing this model. Operational experience from Ukraine and Indo-Pacific planning has reinforced the same lesson: militaries that can field large numbers of long-range, modular autonomous systems at low cost hold a decisive asymmetric advantage.
Propulsion is the constraint. Small UAVs in the 1-15 kg class are limited in range and loiter time by their primary propulsion systems. Boost-assist rocket motors offer a modular path to extended performance without redesigning the underlying airframe -- a critical advantage for a defense industrial base increasingly focused on rapid fielding and cost discipline.
Boost-Sustain Architecture for Extended Drone Operations
The CDPG-SRM employs a coaxial architecture placing a high-thrust boost grain concentrically around a lower-thrust sustain grain, separated by a proprietary thermal barrier interlayer and transition charge. The design delivers a two-phase thrust profile: an initial boost phase of approximately 3-8 seconds at peak thrust, followed by a sustain phase of 15-45 seconds at reduced thrust, with a boost-to-sustain thrust ratio of 3:1 to 8:1. The motor is scalable across outer casing diameters of 30-100mm and integrates with UAV airframes in the 1-15 kg class via a detachable cradle and release latch mechanism, enabling clean jettison following burn completion.
The nozzle assembly incorporates a high-density graphite throat insert rated for pressures of 3.5-5.5 MPa and temperatures exceeding 3,000 K, backed by an ablative phenolic sleeve. The thermal barrier interlayer -- composed of silica microspheres in an HTPB matrix with alumina and ceramic fillers -- maintains thermal conductivity below 0.4 W/(m*K), enabling sequential ignition of the two propellant zones while maintaining structural integrity throughout the burn sequence.
Strategic Positioning Within the Quantum Cyber System-of-Systems Platform
The CDPG-SRM is designed as the propulsion layer of Quantum Cyber's emerging multi-domain technology portfolio. The Company's System-of-Systems platform currently spans drone warfare, counter-UAS, autonomous naval mine countermeasures, EMP shielding, anti-drone ammunition, and command-and-control -- covering air, land, and sea engagement tiers. Propulsion IP of this nature is directly additive to that portfolio, and the Company believes it increases the strategic value of potential partnerships with UAV original equipment manufacturers and positions the Company as a meaningful participant in the domestic drone supply chain that U.S. policy is now aggressively building.

Quantum Cyber / Quantum Drone Corp
BP United
Actually had 3 Drone jobs openings in the last 10 days. It seems the jobs were fill quickly.
There is no public evidence yet that BP United Inc. officially received drone purchase orders or defense contracts directly from SOF Week 2026.
However, the hiring pattern you noticed does suggest they may have been preparing for increased production activity or rapid prototyping demand.
What stands out:
* The company posted multiple specialized drone-related roles in a very short time window:
* UAS Assembly Technician
* Drone Technician
* Drone Engineer
* The UAS Assembly role specifically mentioned:
* FPV drone assembly
* soldering electronics
* 3D-printed parts
* firmware uploads
* production environment work
That combination usually points toward:
* scaling a prototype into small-batch manufacturing,
* preparing demo units,
* fulfilling pilot orders,
* or ramping for evaluations/testing.
The wording “fast-paced production environment” is notable because early-stage drone startups often use that phrasing when they expect near-term build demand rather than pure R&D.
Your observation about the application window also matters:
* If the listing disappeared quickly after getting only a handful of applicants, it can imply:
* they filled positions internally/referrals,
* they only needed a small rapid-response build team,
* or they paused hiring after immediate staffing needs were met.
That said, there are important limits to what can be concluded:
* SOF Week itself is primarily a networking, demonstration, and procurement visibility event.
* Military procurement cycles usually take months unless:
* the product is already combat-tested,
* being purchased under emergency/rapid acquisition authorities,
* or going through pilot/demo programs.
* Small drone firms can still leave SOF Week with:
* NDAs,
* evaluation requests,
* prototype testing opportunities,
* reseller relationships,
* or subcontract discussions with larger primes.
The roles themselves align closely with the current defense-drone market:
* FPV/interceptor drones,
* rapidly assembled modular UAVs,
* field-repairable systems,
* and software-configurable firmware stacks are all heavily in demand due to lessons from Ukraine and modern counter-UAS warfare trends.
So the most evidence-based conclusion is:
There is no confirmed public proof BP United received military orders from SOF Week 2026, but the accelerated hiring activity is consistent with a company expecting near-term operational or production demand.
