About Us
We build the world’s first Native Parallel Hybrid™ propulsion for tactical UAVs and loitering munitions: engines that combine electric power and stealth with combustion endurance on the same drivetrain.
Our Story
Born in a Packing House. Every great engine story starts in a garage. Ours started in a packing house.
In 2018, Itay and Netta Lowental turned the old agricultural packing house behind their home in Moshav Mishar into a workshop. Their goal was ambitious: build hybrid engines for small unmanned aircraft.
A Gap Worth Closing. Before Lowental Hybrid, Itay had worked on many UAV programs, including projects with Israel’s leading defense industries. He saw the same gap again and again. The drones could do far more, but their engines held them back. So he took on the challenge with engineering courage and full commitment, and the dream became a family mission.
Stepping Up. Once the first product was complete, and with help from good friends, the company stepped up. Amikam Norkin, former Commander of the Israeli Air Force, joined as Chairman, and Doron Fridman joined as CEO.
Then came the first projects and a successful first funding round. The company outgrew the packing house and moved to a new facility in Rehovot, built to develop and produce our growing product line.
Where We Are Today. Today, Lowental Hybrid supplies solutions to customers in Israel and around the world.
The packing house is behind us, but the mission is unchanged: become a world-leading engine company whose solutions keep unmanned aviation growing at full speed. That means defense, homeland security, delivery, energy and advanced agriculture.
We still bring the same spirit to every one of those fields: bold engineering, a close team, and engines that let drones do more.
