Background

Arbe appears in questions about Israeli tech because it is an Israeli chipmaker whose radar is now sold into defense as well as automotive markets. Its SEC annual report notes that during the recent conflicts a number of its executive and non-executive employees and their family members were called up as reservists — a description of Israeli conscription law, not a corporate donation or campaign. This research found no documented cash donation by Arbe to the Israeli military or war-related charities, no solidarity statement and no contract with the Israeli Ministry of Defense; the July 2026 defense framework agreement names neither the customer nor its country.

Operations in Israel2015State of Israel (incorporation, headquarters, R&D and employment)
Israeli company: Arbe Robotics Ltd. was founded in Tel Aviv in November 2015 by Kobi Marenko, Noam Arkind and Oz Fixman, and its SEC annual report states plainly that 'we are an Israeli corporation, and most of our employees operate from our offices in Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel,' with the majority of officers and directors resident in Israel. Of 145 employees and consultants at December 31, 2025, 135 were mostly based in Israel. Arbe develops 4D imaging radar chipsets for driver assistance and autonomy; it listed on Nasdaq (ARBE) in October 2021 via a SPAC merger with Industrial Technology Acquisitions and added a dual listing on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange in May 2024.
Government contract2026-07-14Unnamed global defense and homeland-security system integrator (nationality not disclosed by Arbe)
Arbe moved its Israeli-developed radar into the defense market: on July 14, 2026 it announced a framework agreement under which what it described only as 'a leading global defense and homeland security system integrator' selected Arbe as the exclusive radar provider for three civilian and defense programs, with initial orders already fulfilled and further orders expected in 2026 and 2027. Arbe did not name the integrator or its country and disclosed no contract value, so this is documented as an Israeli company's entry into defense supply, not as a contract with Israel's military.
