| Wilmington, MA, USA – May 27, 2026 – Liberty Defense Holdings Ltd.(“Liberty” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: DETX; TSXV: SCAN), a leading technology provider of AI-based next generation detection solutions for concealed weapons and threats, today announced that it has deployed HEXWAVE™ systems at LaGuardia Airport’s Terminal B, one of the most active air travel hubs in the United States. The deployment marks a meaningful step in Liberty’s continued expansion across the aviation sector. The original contract was awarded in collaboration with K2 Security Screening Group, a national leader in aviation security, which was selected by LaGuardia Gateway Partners, the manager and developer of LaGuardia Terminal B, to install the new state-of-the-art security screening checkpoint at LGA’s Terminal B. K2 placed HEXWAVE systems at the aviation worker screening checkpoints and provided operational support, enabling rapid responsiveness and long-term scalability.
LaGuardia Terminal B is a high-density, mission-critical environment where workforce screening must balance speed, security, and operational continuity. The terminal’s move to modernize employee screening demonstrates a broader industry shift toward frictionless, high-throughput solutions. Liberty’s deployment of multiple HEXWAVE™ units at access points enables continuous, contactless screening that reduces congestion, improves flow, and maintains advanced detection—highlighting the platform’s ability to perform at scale in demanding aviation settings.
HEXWAVE™ integrates millimeter-wave sensing, 3D imaging, and AI to detect both metallic and non-metallic threats—including evolving and improvised weapons. Built for real-world, high-traffic environments, the system delivers continuous, reliable performance with minimal friction.
“This deployment at LaGuardia Terminal B is a clear validation of HEXWAVE™ in one of the most demanding, high-throughput environments in the country,” said Bill Frain, Chief Executive Officer of Liberty Defense. “Airports are under increasing pressure to modernize security without compromising flow, and we’re seeing that translate into real adoption. We believe this is just the beginning of a broader shift toward frictionless, AI-driven screening at scale.”
