Destinus Closes Perciv AI Acquisition to Integrate Radar AI to Track Drones and Fly Without GPS
Destinus completed its acquisition of Dutch company Perciv AI on October 21, 2026, bringing neural-network-based radar perception technology into its in-house sensing operations. Perciv's software processes radar returns to detect and track low-signature objects, including drones, and supports navigation when GPS or other satellite signals are unavailable. Its Delft team will continue to lead radar-perception development alongside Destinus' optical-autonomy capability at Daedalean and a separate radar-seeker collaboration with TNO. The transaction is a completed acquisition, but its financial terms were not disclosed and no new operational platform qualification was announced.
