Codective Signs Pilot Agreement with Israel Aerospace Industries to Deploy IVFOS Autonomous Navigation System
Washington, D.C. — February 16, 2026 — Codective, a developer of advanced autonomous navigation and visual positioning technologies for unmanned systems, today announced the signing of a pilot agreement with Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), a global leader in aerospace and defense. The agreement will support the pilot launch and evaluation of Codective’s IVFOS autonomous navigation system, marking a significant milestone in the technology's operational validation.
The pilot will focus on demonstrating IVFOS’s ability to provide reliable, GPS-independent navigation and positioning capabilities for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) operating in complex and denied environments. By leveraging real-time visual data and proprietary onboard processing, IVFOS enables UAV platforms to maintain precise navigation without reliance on satellite signals.
“This agreement represents an important step forward in bringing IVFOS from advanced development into real-world operational deployment,” said Anton Gera, Founder and CEO of Codective. “Working with a globally respected organization like IAI validates both the technical maturity of our system and the growing demand for resilient, next-generation navigation solutions. Our goal is to redefine how autonomous systems perceive and navigate the world.”
Under the terms of the pilot agreement, Codective will integrate and deploy IVFOS for testing and evaluation in operationally relevant conditions. The pilot is designed to assess system performance, robustness, and integration pathways with existing unmanned platforms, and to support potential future operational adoption.
Autonomous navigation has become a critical capability for modern unmanned systems, particularly in environments where GPS signals may be degraded, denied, or unreliable. Solutions such as IVFOS offer a new paradigm by enabling platforms to navigate using onboard intelligence and visual perception, significantly improving mission resilience and operational independence.
“This pilot marks the beginning of what we believe will be a transformative phase for autonomous navigation,” Gera added. “We see IVFOS not simply as a component, but as a foundational capability that will enable the next generation of truly autonomous aerial systems.”
The pilot program is expected to commence in the coming months.
