Maris-Tech Secures First Substantial Production Order from a Leading Defense Loitering Munitions Manufacturer
Following successful pilot deployments, the order marks the transition to operational supply of Jupiter Drone edge video processing systems for defense applications
Rehovot, Israel, Feb. 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Maris-Tech Ltd. (Nasdaq: MTEK, MTEKW) (“Maris-Tech” or the “Company”), a global leader in video and artificial intelligence (“AI”)- based edge computing technology, today announced it has received its first substantial production order from a new customer, which is a dominant player in the defense loitering munitions sector. The order follows the successful completion of pilot projects with the customer and initial system validation, marking the first substantial operational supply order.
The production order reflects the customer’s move from evaluation to operational deployment, which the Company believes demonstrates the maturity, integration readiness, and field performance of Maris-Tech’s Jupiter Drones edge video processing platform.
Unmanned aerial vehicles and loitering munitions require onboard intelligence processing that can operate with limited bandwidth, intermittent connectivity, and strict size, weight, and power constraints. Maris-Tech’s Jupiter architecture enables advanced onboard video encoding, AI-driven analytics, and mission-critical intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance processing directly at the tactical edge, supporting autonomous targeting workflows, situational awareness, and real-time operator decision support.
“We believe that this order represents a significant milestone for Maris-Tech, strengthening our position as a technology provider to next-generation loitering defense systems,” said Israel Bar, Chief Executive Officer at Maris-Tech. “We are proud of what we believe is a strong validation that this order represents within the loitering munitions market.”
