The Company has agreed not to manufacture and market any products that are functionally equivalent to the Systems during the term of the MOU. The first Systems subject to the MOU are the HAROP, HARPY and the Mini-HARPY systems. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in the MOU precludes the government of Israel from selling Systems directly to the U.S. government.

Subject to the parties entering into a more extensive definitive implementation agreement, IAI has granted the Company a license to those intellectual property rights held by IAI relating to the Systems to enable the Company to manufacture and market the Systems in the United States. In order to retain these rights, the Company will be responsible for establishing and operating an assembly line in the United States at its sole cost and expense.

No other up-front royalty payments are due or will be paid by the Company for the rights to the Systems. The Company may also pay IAI for engineering support and other services. The MOU anticipates that IAI will sell a portion of the subsystems and components for the Systems to the Company, subject to approval of the United States Government and to the extent permitted by United States law.

The cooperation under the MOU may have a term of up to ten years subject to achievement of certain milestones. At the end of the term, including any extensions, the parties will engage in good faith discussions to evaluate the status of their cooperation and the relevant business outlook, and may mutually agree to extend the exclusivity period subject to terms to be agreed; continue the cooperation on a non-exclusive basis or terminate the collaboration.

Exhibit 99.1

Palladyne AI and IAI Form Partnership to Manufacture and Sell Combat-Proven Loitering Munition Systems to the U.S. Department of War

SALT LAKE CITY and TEL AVIV – June 8, 2026 - Palladyne AI Corp. (NASDAQ: PDYN and PDYNW) (“Palladyne AI”), a U.S.-based defense and industrial technology company, and Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), a world-class aerospace and defense leader, today announced the formation of a strategic partnership under which Palladyne AI will manufacture, integrate and market IAI’s HARPY, HAROP and Mini HARPY loitering munition systems to the U.S. Department of War.

The partnership provides Palladyne AI with exclusive U.S. production and marketing rights for loitering munition systems, designed to suppress and destroy enemy air defenses and provide long-range strike capabilities across operational and tactical environments.

IAI has been pioneering the global loitering munition market for more than 40 years, with systems deployed operationally in many militaries worldwide. Under the partnership, Palladyne AI will adapt the systems to U.S. operational requirements and domestically manufacture components and subsystems, while IAI will provide engineering support and key subsystems. The partnership comes as the Department of War is increasing its investments in loitering munitions to expand its military capabilities for the modern battlefield.

Boaz Levy, IAI's Chairman of the Board: “The U.S. is a strategic market for IAI, and this partnership represents a significant step in expanding our long-term presence and industrial cooperation in the U.S. defense sector. By combining IAI’s decades of operational expertise and combat-proven loitering munition technologies with Palladyne AI’s U.S.-based manufacturing capabilities, we are positioning these systems to meet evolving operational requirements and support the current and future needs of the U.S.”

Ben Wolff, President and Chief Executive Officer of Palladyne AI, commented: "The U.S. defense industrial base needs battle-proven loitering munitions capabilities it can field now. IAI's systems have been validated in real-world combat environments for decades. What differentiates this partnership is that by combining IAI’s systems with Palladyne AI’s U.S. engineering and manufacturing capabilities, we can make those systems’ capabilities available to the U.S. Department of War much faster than through a clean-sheet development program. We built that stack in 2025. This partnership is the first major proof of what it can do."

Guy Barlev, Executive VP and GM of the Space Missiles and Systems, IAI: “This new strategic partnership will bring our combat-proven long-range loitering munitions to the U.S. market. We selected Palladyne AI for its combination of advanced autonomy, engineering expertise and certified U.S. manufacturing capabilities. Palladyne AI's leadership has built and scaled large, complex businesses before. Their team moves with the kind of urgency the current threat environment demands.

Admiral Eric T. Olson (Ret.), Palladyne AI board member, concluded, "We built Palladyne AI to be the kind of partner the Department of War actually needs right now, not a startup with an interesting product and no ability to scale, and not a legacy prime moving at legacy prime speed. We can take proven systems, adapt them for U.S. requirements, and build them in America. The IAI partnership is exactly the kind of opportunity that Palladyne’s infrastructure was designed to capture.

IAI Loitering Munitions: Distinct Capabilities for Distinct Requirements

The HARPY and HAROP systems have proven unparalleled effectiveness against enemy air defenses, serving as a decisive tool for gaining a theater-wide advantage. These loitering munitions are designed for autonomous operation, searching for and engaging hostile targets across the battlefield. Equipped with advanced sensors and high-precision strike capabilities, they effectively neutralize air defense infrastructure, including radar sites, missile launchers, and command-and-control centers. By eliminating these key assets, IAI’s long-range loitering munitions have played a pivotal role in establishing air superiority and clearing the path for successful multi-domain operations.

The Mini HARPY leverages the advanced heritage of the HARPY and HAROP, combining their respective seekers onto a single platform for tactical echelons. Beyond its EO/IR sensors, the system is equipped with a specialized Anti-Radiation seeker designed specifically to locate and neutralize adversary emitters. This provides front-line forces with the ability to secure air superiority by effectively engaging enemy air defenses and Counter-UAS arrays."

Conference Call

Palladyne AI will host a conference call tomorrow, Tuesday, June 9, at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss this morning’s announcement.
