Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On April 16, 2026, Water IO Ltd., a company traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange which is majority owned by T3 Defense Inc. through its wholly-owned subsidiary Star 26 Capital Ltd. announced the execution of a non-binding letter of intent to lend $10,000,000 to Meteor Aerospace Ltd., an Israeli defense technology company specializing in the development and production of loitering munitions (“suicide drones”), unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), unmanned surface vessels (USVs), and long-range precision-guided missiles.
Pursuant to the terms of the non-binding letter of intent, if the $10,000,000 loan is made by Water IO, Meteor Aerospace will issue Water IO 51% of its outstanding shares on a post-investment basis.
The transaction is subject to, among other conditions, the successful completion by Water IO of a public offering of convertible notes on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, the satisfaction of due diligence of Meteor, the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements regarding the investment and stock issuance, and the receipt of all required regulatory approvals. There can be no assurance that the proposed transaction will be consummated.
If the transaction is consummated, there will be no dilutive effect to T3 Defense Inc.
About Meteor Aerospace
Founded and led by Itzhak Nissan, the former President and CEO of Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), Meteor Aerospace is a privately held Israeli defense company. Mr. Nissan, one of the most prominent figures in Israel’s defense industrial complex, identified the paradigm shift toward autonomous, unmanned warfare years ago and has built Meteor into a company at the cutting edge of this transformation.
Meteor’s co-founder and financial backer, Hezi Bezalel, brings significant capital markets and investment expertise. The company’s COO, Col. (Res.) Beni Cohen, is a former commander of IAF control units and IAI defense attaché, with deep operational and program management experience including involvement in F-35 component manufacturing at IAI’s Lahav Division.
Meteor operates across five product lines spanning air, land, sea, and strike domains:
Impact 700/1400 UAVs — MALE-class unmanned aerial vehicles designed for ISR and tactical missions.
RAMBOW UGV — High-performance unmanned ground vehicle for autonomous battlefield operations.

Unmanned Surface Vessel (USV) — Advanced manned/unmanned vessel with integrated mission suite and remote weapon station.
Precision-Guided Missiles — Long-range homing attack missiles, robust and operationally proven.
Loitering Munitions (Suicide Drones) — Autonomous loitering attack systems capable of real-time target acquisition and precision strike.
Four of Meteor’s five product lines have reached commercial maturity, positioning the company for a rapid transition from development to revenue generation and near-term integration into defense procurement programs in Israel and globally.
