Critical Infrastructure Technologies Ltd. (CSE: CTTT) (OTC: CITLF) (FRA: X9V) has executed a mutual non-disclosure agreement with Babcock International Group PLC and Draganfly Inc., marking a strategic step toward a multi-company collaboration focused on enhancing defence and security capabilities across the Asia-Pacific region. The partnership leverages the complementary strengths of each organization to deliver sophisticated, scalable solutions for governments, military forces, and national-security stakeholders.
Babcock International Group, a FTSE 100 defence prime, brings mission-critical engineering, naval support, fleet management, training, and major defence program expertise. Its longstanding support to the UK Ministry of Defence and allied nations provides a trusted pathway into rapidly developing Asia-Pacific defence markets. Critical Infrastructure Technologies Ltd. contributes advanced engineering capabilities, mission-system integration, digital architectures, sensor ecosystems, and resilient mission environments. Draganfly Inc., an award-winning developer of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and sensor-driven data solutions, adds operational maturity with its Commander 3XL systems already sold into the region. Draganfly’s NDAA-compliant and NATO-supportive platforms support military, public-safety, and disaster-response operations.
Together, the three companies form a comprehensive capability stack: mission-critical defence engineering, sustainment, and fleet support from Babcock; high-assurance digital integration, sensor networks, and resilient mission systems from CiTech; and advanced UAS, ISR technologies, and operational platforms from Draganfly. This unified capability supports end-to-end solutions across national defence modernisation, border and maritime security, disaster and humanitarian response, multi-domain situational awareness, critical infrastructure protection, and training and sustainment services.
As Asia-Pacific governments prioritise security resilience, sovereign capability, and rapid-response technologies, the combined strengths position the group to meet regional requirements with integrated, technologically advanced, and operationally proven solutions. The parties will now begin evaluating targeted opportunities and joint-program concepts tailored to defence and security needs across the region.
In a separate development, CiTech advanced an additional €50,000 to Plutus Invest and Consulting GmbH on account of marketing and communications services provided under a consulting agreement dated July 16, 2025, as previously announced on July 22, 2025. The company continues to execute its strategic initiatives while advancing its core Nexus 16 product, a self-deploying platform designed to provide critical mobile telecommunications for mining, defence, border security, and emergency services sectors.
