rogue commercial drones with its leading EnforceAir c-sUAS (Counter
small Unmanned Aerial System) platform.

Over the past eighteen months, D-Fend has been working closely
with the CTTSO to co-develop D-Fend's EnforceAir advanced C-sUAS
capabilities. During the last six months, the EnforceAir has been
successfully deployed by more than twenty U.S DOD, DHS, and DOJ units
and agencies against the growing threat of commercial drones.

Among the agencies currently operating D-Fend's EnforceAir are the
U.S. Special Operations units, U.S. Army, FBI, Department of Homeland
Security, U.S. Customs and Borders Patrol (CBP), U.S Marshal service,
and more.

"EnforceAir continues to demonstrate top preforming C-sUAS
capabilities against rogue drones," said Michael J. Trexler,
ASD-SO/LIC CTTSO Tactical Operations Government Program Manager.
"D-Fend plays a key role in our ongoing efforts to keep our soldiers
and country safe".

"It is a tremendous honor to be chosen to protect the U.S. forces
and most valued critical assets,'' says Zohar Halachmi, Chairman &
CEO of D-Fend solutions. "We are very proud to be working together
with the U.S. CTTSO team, protecting U.S. soldiers, and citizens".

The EnforceAir advanced autonomous system, exclusively marketed in
the U.S by ELTA North America, automatically and passively detects,
locates and identifies rogue drones with multiple options for
mitigation, minimizing the risk to key infrastructure and personnel;
by taking control, safe routing/landing threat C-sUAS safely at a
pre-defined safe zone. The mitigation capability above includes drone
swarms.

"We are proud to represent D-Fend Solutions products and services
in the U.S. market," stated Greg Gudger, President & CEO of ELTA
North America, which is headquarted in Annapolis Junction, Maryland,

About the CTTSO

The Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special
Operations/Low-Intensity Conflict (ASD (SO/LIC)) established CTTSO in
1999 to consolidate its research and development programs previously
administered by the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense
(Command, Control, Communications, and Intelligence). The research
and development effort that supports the interagency Technical
Support Working Group (TSWG) was the first program to transition to
CTTSO. The TSWG is divided into 10 subgroups, each chaired by senior
representatives from federal agencies with special expertise in those
functional areas. The Explosive Ordnance Disposal/Low-Intensity
Conflict (EOD/LIC) Program, which develops advanced technologies for
Joint Service EOD and Special Operations Forces (SOF) missions,
transitioned in 2001. In 2007, the Irregular Warfare Support (IWS)
Program was initiated to satisfy a growing need to improve the
capacity of the United States to counter insurgencies and fight an
irregular war. In FY16, portions of the EOD/LIC and IWS Programs that
support the CTTSO mission were transitioned to TSWG under the
Improvised Device Defeat/Explosives Countermeasures and Irregular
Warfare and Evolving Threats, respectively.
