Staged delivery and upgrade path through 2029
Delivery is staged, starting in 2027 with an IQM Halocene H4 system with 150 physical qubits, followed by upgrades in 2028 and a Halocene H5 installation in 2029.
The final configuration targets real-time error correction with up to 9 logical qubits using distance-3 surface and color codes.
