Israeli Pavilion | Booth 1951 At this year’s SOF Week, Lowental Hybrid is presenting its Native Parallel Hybrid™ propulsion systems within the Israeli national pavilion, alongside leading defense technologies shaping modern special operations. The focus is clear: propulsion built for real missions - not for demos, not for lab conditions, but for the operational edge where endurance, reliability, and flexibility directly impact outcomes. Built for Special Forces Missions Speci

XPONENTIAL Europe 2026 made one thing very clear: the UAV market is moving into a new phase. The conversation is no longer centered only on drones as standalone products, or on pilot projects designed to prove a concept. Across the exhibition floor and in industry discussions, the focus has shifted toward operational autonomy, deployable systems, and technologies that can create meaningful performance advantages in the field. That broader framing is visible in how the platfor

Tactical UAS and loitering munitions are shifting from rapid development to rapid adoption. At UAV Technology USA 2026, US Army-led discussions highlighted the trends shaping the next phase: mission-driven requirements, endurance defined by mission systems, faster acquisition pathways, and a growing focus on operational simplicity.

Israeli defense firm Elbit Systems has signed a 10-year pact with Lowental Hybrid Ltd. to extend mission endurance fivefold for its drones. The latter will supply its Native Parallel Hybrid propulsion systems for this cause.

Israeli defense giant Elbit Systems has selected startup Lowental Hybrid to supply a new hybrid-electric engine small enough to fit in tactical drones, aiming for a breakthrough that could significantly extend the range of unmanned systems.
