Proxity Digital Networks, through Cyber Aerospace, an operating subsidiary of Proxity's Cyber Defense Systems, announces the Company will showcase the SA-76 spherical airship and Cyber Scout UAV at the Paris Air Show, Le Bourget Airport, June 13-19, 2005.

The Paris Air Show is the leading international event for the aviation, aeronautics and space industries. Renowned as the world's largest air show, the 2003 event had 1,728 exhibitors from 41 countries displaying products and services to over 94,000+ trade visitors from 141 countries.

Billy Robinson, Proxity Digital Networks CEO notes, "This show allows us to present the airships to a global audience including government and military buyers from around the world."

"We received excellent reviews in Maryland in June when we launched the SA-60 airship and we plan to demonstrate both Techsphere's new production model SA-76 spherical airship and our Cyber Scout UAV in Paris."

"With the SA-76 on the tarmac and the Cyber Scout in the booth, everyone in the international marketplace can get a close-up of the advanced technologies. We anticipate being at the right place at the right time with both these products."

Mike Lawson, President of Techsphere Systems International states, "Techsphere's development of airships is progressing on schedule. The SA-76 has homeland security, defense and telecommunications capabilities with Sierra Nevada integrating the sophisticated systems onboard the airships."

"A low-attitude airship, it will fly consistently between 10,000 and 16,000 feet and be manufactured at our new plant in Columbus, Georgia. We anticipate opening that facility in the next several weeks."

Fatih Ozmen, CEO and President, Sierra Nevada Corporation notes, "Through our existing relationship with Techsphere and Cyber Aerospace, Sierra Nevada looks forward to being an integral partner in the development of an unmanned, high altitude airship that will change the way we currently look at communications and information gathering."

"Sierra Nevada Corporation provides the technology, payload and sensor integration for Techsphere's clients as well as many other innovative, high-quality electronic systems with numerous applications, including unmanned systems."
