Israeli defense technology · AI · training · counter-UAS
Defense technology shaped by operational experience.
Cherev develops AI systems for military and national-security organizations, for defensive and offensive applications, together with the Keshet Yehonatan training system and counter-FPV drone defense. Founded in Israel by veterans of Israel's special forces.
What we build
Three capability areas, one operating logic
Each capability starts from a problem our team met in service and is engineered to be used under pressure by the people who face it. We describe every system by what it does today.
- 01
AI for military and national-security organizations
Cherev develops AI systems for defensive and offensive military applications: intelligence processing, analysis and decision support, and mission support. The Cherev Intelligence Platform, our document and imagery intelligence system, is built, running and available for evaluation. Mission programs are delivered directly to customers and are not described publicly.
- 02
Keshet Yehonatan: training and simulation
Cherev's marksmanship and tactical-training system. Scenario-based drills, recorded performance and structured after-action review, without live-fire injury risk, so units can repeat their hardest scenarios as often as the threat demands. Designed by instructors who went on operations with the people they trained.
- 03
Counter-FPV and counter-UAS
Fiber-optic FPV drones emit no radio signal and defeat every jammer. Cherev assesses a unit's exposure, designs and integrates a layered non-RF detect-decide-defeat response with partner sensors and effectors, and trains the crews who have seconds to act.
Built by operators
The experience is the differentiator
Cherev's founders and team served in Israel's elite units and carry operational experience from counter-terrorism and special operations. That experience decides which problems we take on, how a system must behave when the user is exhausted and under fire, and how we test before we ship. It is a statement about the people; each product earns its own record.
- Origin
- Founded in Israel by veterans of Israel's special forces.
- Team
- Operators with operational experience in counter-terrorism and special operations, working alongside AI and systems engineers.
- Customers
- Military, national-security and law-enforcement organizations. Names, deployments and results are not published.
- Standards
- Built to the standard each program requires (ISO 27001, NATO STANAG and others), documented under contract rather than displayed as badges.
Emerging threat
The drone that cannot be jammed
Fiber-optic FPV drones fly on a spooled glass fiber and emit no radio signal. Used at scale in Ukraine and reported on Israel's northern border, they pass through every RF-based defense. The response has to move to sensing, decision and physical defeat, and it has to happen in seconds.
Talk to the founding team
Briefings, evaluations and demonstrations are arranged directly with the founders, under NDA where the subject requires it. Tell us which capability you are evaluating and the operational context.
