The Management Board of MBF Group S.A., with its registered office in
Warsaw _"the Company", "the Issuer"_, hereby announces that on 22 July
2026, the Company received a document signed by the other party entitled
"Memorandum of Understanding and Letter of Intent on Strategic
Industrial and Technological Cooperation in UAV, Autonomous and Dual-Use
Projects" _"Memorandum"_. The document was entered into between the
Issuer and Defense Bridge Danmanlk Savunma Sanayi Ticaret Limited
irketi, with its registered office in Ankara, Republic of Turkey
_"Defense Bridge", "Partner"_, and is dated 19 July 2026.
Defense Bridge is a Turkish company providing consultancy services and
supporting the development of business cooperation in the defence,
aviation, security and dual-use technology sectors. The Partner
specialises in establishing international industrial partnerships,
identifying manufacturers and technology suppliers, facilitating
contacts with Turkish institutions and companies, supporting market
entry, production localisation and supplier qualification, and
coordinating cross-border defence projects.
The purpose of the Memorandum is to establish a framework for
industrial, technological and commercial cooperation. Potential areas
for joint activities include, in particular: unmanned aerial vehicles,
autonomous and multi-platform systems, swarm management technologies, C
-UAS, loitering munitions, artificial intelligence and autonomous
mission management, reconnaissance, command, communications and
navigation systems, sensors, avionics and electronics, simulation and
digital twins, as well as production, integration, testing,
industrialisation and the development of international supply chains.
Among the potential projects, particular mention was made of the IRYDA+
X1 system and related UAV platforms, other unmanned systems, C-UAS
solutions, loitering munition platforms, reconnaissance and target
acquisition systems, the integration of sensors and mission equipment,
and training and simulation solutions. The memorandum does not limit
cooperation to a single product, but lays the foundation for the
development of further projects by the Issuer in the defence and
dual-use sectors.
In accordance with the agreed division of roles, MBF Group S.A. will be
responsible for developing the Polish and European dimensions of the
cooperation, including identifying companies, universities, research
institutes and technology partners; organising contacts with
institutions and potential users; preparing presentations and
demonstrations; forming consortia and supporting the commercialisation
of agreed projects. Defense Bridge, on the other hand, is to support the
Issuer in gaining access to the Turkish defence ecosystem, identifying
local industrial and technological partners, conducting analyses of
cooperation opportunities, preparing integration and production
concepts, and coordinating contacts with Turkish stakeholders.
The parties intend to assess the potential for the production, assembly,
integration and servicing of products; develop Polish-Turkish supply
chains; prepare joint technological and industrial projects; organise
presentations for potential users; and participate in international
programmes, trade fairs, projects and procurement procedures.
The memorandum contains provisions protecting intellectual property,
confidential information and business contacts provided by the parties.
The document does not entail the transfer of rights to technology,
documentation, software, trademarks, production, distribution or
commercialisation, and any specific technical, commercial or production
cooperation will require separate arrangements. The Memorandum has been
entered into for a period of three years.
The Issuer's Management Board has deemed the conclusion of the
Memorandum to be material information due to the formal expansion of
industrial and technological cooperation, the acquisition of a partner
responsible for developing relations with the Turkish defence ecosystem,
and the opportunity to utilise this cooperation in the further
commercialisation of the IRYDA+ X1 system and the development of the
Issuer's subsequent projects in the areas of UAVs, autonomous systems,
C-UAS, loitering munitions and dual-use technologies.
