T3 Defense reported that it is seeing an increased demand for integrated air and missile defense and counter-UAS capabilities amid the ongoing Iran conflict and broader geopolitical developments. "The current conflict environment has made clear that missile defense and counter-drone capabilities are no longer niche, these are foundational requirements for modern national security," said Menny Shalom, Chief Executive Officer of T3 Defense. "Our strategy of acquiring and scaling specialized defense businesses in the U.S. and Israel, positions us exceptionally well to support growing allied demand for practical, field-ready solutions across air defense, counter-UAS, resilient navigation, and defense engineering. We are committed to delivering the integrated capabilities our partners need to protect forces, infrastructure, and populations in today's high-threat operational realities."

T3 Defense announced two senior leadership appointments aimed at strengthening execution, scalability, and long-term production reliability. T3 Defense appointed Emil Blumer as Chief Business Officer and Jordan Buchler as CEO of its Manufacturing & Industrial Processing Division, aligning commercial growth and operational execution around the industrial capabilities that most directly influence production continuity. As CBO, Mr. Blumer is responsible for growth strategy, dealflow, and market positioning across the portfolio. He brings more than 25 years of experience in the defense industry, most notably from his tenure at Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, where he held senior roles spanning program leadership, business development, and commercial management across international defense markets. Meanwhile, Mr. Buchler will lead T3 Defense's Manufacturing & Industrial Processing Division, a mandate that includes expanding manufacturing throughput, standardizing industrial and quality processes, reducing qualification friction, and converting durable backlogs into repeatable production output. He will do this by managing a number of subsidiaries including Industrial Techno-Logic Solutions and Positech. Buchler brings decades of experience building and scaling complex operational systems in highly constrained environments. He spent over 20 years in the public sector before moving into senior operational roles in industry, including building the Ethiopian Maritime Training Institute, and senior leadership positions at Weissbeerger, Paramount Enterprise International, ZOOZ Power, and Oran Safety Glass.

T3 Defense, formerly Nukkleus, announced that it has acquired a 51% stake in Industrial Techno-Logic Solutions, ITS, with an option to buy the remainder. No additional cash or securities were issued in connection with the acquisition. "This transaction reinforces our strategy of strengthening constrained production capacity within the defense industrial base," said Menny Shalom, Chief Executive Officer of T3 Defense Inc. "ITS operates at the intersection of advanced engineering and scalable manufacturing, where execution precision and delivery discipline directly impact long-cycle national security programs. With ITS included in our portfolio, we now estimate annual revenue in the range of $24 to $26 million, reflecting the scale of execution-critical assets we are assembling."
