XTEND

Earlier today, Secretary @PeteHegseth highlighted the strength of the U.S.–Israel partnership in protecting global security. XTEND is proud to support the missions of the United States and Israel with technologies designed to send robots into the most dangerous missions instead of people. This is the future of defense: human-guided autonomy.

“XOS is the operating system for the future of robotics.” @XTEND_XR CEO Aviv Shapira @shapira7392 joined @LizClaman on #TheClamanCountdown to discuss how AI and robotics are changing warfare and why the future of robotics will be powered by software.

Drones are the wave of the future. @XTEND_XR & JFB Construction Holdings (Nasdaq: JFB) are building the technology and the American industrial muscle to keep it safe and strong. 🇺🇸

“Mobilizing Our US Industry for the Age of AI Defense” As American men and women stand on the frontlines of Operation Epic Fury, recent global escalations have made one reality undeniable : The U.S. must possess unquestionable superiority in autonomous warfare. The skies have changed, and the nature of conflict has evolved overnight. We need both the mind and the muscle, as we are building the *AI Arsenal of Democracy.* This urgent mission is the driving force behind our monumental $1.5B business combination. Together, @XTEND_XR and Nasdaq:JFB are forging the definitive industrial base for U.S. dominance in AI and drone warfare. We are fusing XTEND’s cognitive, combat-proven autonomy (XOS) with Nasdaq:JFB’s American industrial might. I am incredibly proud to have visionary investors and partners like @EricTrump and @DonaldJTrumpJr backing this mission: Leaders who deeply understand the urgency and recognize that true global deterrence requires accelerating U.S. manufacturing, scaling production responsibly, and ensuring our next-generation defense platforms are Built in America. The future of defense is autonomous. And its manufacturing base is being secured right now. 🦅 🔗 Read more about our combination to establish a NASDAQ-listed U.S. leader in defense robotics: xtend.me/resources/jfb-…

XTEND live at #EnforceTac2026, Booth 6-461. We’re demonstrating how XOS enables one control layer across multiple robotic platforms, allowing operators to take control instantly with no prior flight experience. The conversations this week are about interoperability, simplicity under pressure, and software-defined defense. The event continues through tomorrow, and we look forward to welcoming defense and security leaders to experience the system firsthand.

XTEND is proud to serve as a Strategic Partner of the Creative Defense Foundation’s #DisruptorsInTheDesert 2026, starting today in La Quinta, CA. This invitation-only gathering brings together senior policymakers, DoD leaders, and defense innovators advancing national security priorities. Feb 20–21 | La Quinta, CA

Autonomy at scale is reshaping modern defense. As multi-platform systems evolve, one principle remains constant: the operator stays in control. XTEND builds human-guided autonomy that enables one operator to manage multiple platforms with oversight, accountability, and mission precision. msn.com/en-us/news/tec… #DefenseTech #AutonomousSystems #AI #HumanMachineTeaming

Huge milestone - @XTEND_XR is going public. Proud of our incredible team and excited for what’s ahead. Thank you, @EricTrump and @DonaldJTrumpJr , for backing our mission to make the world safer. We’re just getting started.

We are proud to share that JFB has entered into a definitive agreement to combine with XTEND in an all-stock transaction. Following the closing of the business combination, the joint company is expected to be renamed XTEND AI Robotics and be listed on Nasdaq under the ticker “XTND.” XTEND continues to deliver next-generation autonomous systems built on our battle-proven XOS operating system,designed to enable defense, public safety, and private security organizations to deploy and operate autonomous systems with immediate mission readiness in complex, high-risk environments. We thank our customers, partners, and team members for their continued trust and support as we take this important step forward. The transaction remains subject to customary closing conditions and approvals.

Software is what turns hardware into operational capability. XOS powers human-guided autonomy across XTEND systems.

Thanks to @XTEND_XR for joining us as a Strategic Partner for #DisruptorsInTheDesert. XTEND is a software-first defense technology company, powered by its XOS operating system and focused on human-guided autonomy for defense and public safety. #CreativeDisruptors

Autonomy works best when humans remain in the loop by design.

Even simple technology can feel overly complex. Three different remotes for the TV are already enough to be frustrating. Now imagine a soldier expected to operate dozens of unmanned systems, each with different controls, interfaces, and training requirements. This is the challenge Lockheed Martin Skunk Works® and XTEND are addressing together. By integrating XTEND’s Operating System into Skunk Works’ MDCX autonomy platform, a single operator can command and control multiple classes of unmanned systems from one environment, reducing complexity and operational handoffs. This is about simplifying execution in the most demanding environments, and building toward the future of multi-domain operations. The Financial Times covered today’s announcement here: markets.ft.com/data/announce/…

Skunk Works® and XTEND Expand Joint All Domain Command and Control for Advanced Mission Execution. Lockheed Martin Skunk Works® and XTEND collaborated to integrate the XTEND Operating System (XOS) into Skunk Works’ MDCX™ autonomy platform, allow simultaneous Command and Control (C2) of multiple classes of UAS, creating improved situational awareness for lower-level mission execution in joint all-domain C2 (JADC2) scenarios. With the planned integration of XTEND’s XOS into Lockheed Martin’s MC-MDCX, a single operator can conduct both missions. The integration demonstration proved a reduction in total manpower for complex mission executions, removing the need for mission handoffs to lower-tiered operators, and improving situational awareness across the mission space.
