As Deano969 has pointed out, REX have nothing in their current fleet ‘…to throw at’ the AAD contract, and will therefore need to acquire one large passenger jet, four turboprops that can operate on skis, and four twin-engine helicopters that can also operate from the Australian icebreaker RSV Nuyina.

Under those circumstances, the 11 July 2023 Media Release issued by REX about its North to Alaska South to Antarctica intentions may have perhaps been a little premature?

Like, about 262 days maybe?
