Tower Semiconductor and Axiro Semiconductor Deliver High-Power, High-Efficiency

SiGe ICs for Secure U.S. Defense Applications

Leveraging Tower's advanced SiGe technology, these U.S.-fabricated Beamforming ICs achieve superior performance,

and strengthen secure domestic supply chains for critical next-generation radar and satcom applications

MIGDAL HAEMEK, Israel, and SAN DIEGO, CA. April 27, 2026 - Tower Semiconductor (NASDAQ/TASE: TSEM), the leading foundry for high-value analog semiconductor solutions, and Axiro Semiconductor Inc., a U.S.-based company specializing in advanced radar, satcom, and high-speed communications solutions, today announced availability of Axiro’s high-performance radar beamforming integrated circuits (BFICs), built on Tower’s market-leading Silicon Germanium (SiGe) technology. The devices are fabricated by Tower Semiconductor in its US facilities, and designed and sold by Axiro, strengthening the resilience of U.S. domestic defense supply chains. Currently ramping to volume production, Axiro’s BFICs are ready for deployment in critical defense systems and set a new performance benchmark over existing market alternatives, driving increased design wins and positioning both Tower and Axiro as key players in delivering secure foundry services for next-generation defense applications.

Axiro’s new Ku and X-band BFICs deliver differentiated advantages across key performance metrics including gain, linearity, output power, high-efficiency, and fast-switching capabilities, which are critical for modern defense radar applications. These devices are designed to meet the stringent requirements of advanced radar systems while addressing growing demand from U.S. defense primes and radar manufacturers for domestically sourced solutions.

“Tower has an established presence as a leading vendor to the U.S. aerospace and defense industry,” said Mike Scott, Vice President and General Manager of the Aerospace & Defense Business Unit at Tower Semiconductor. “This A&D experience, along with our market-leading SiGe technology capabilities, sets the foundational performance and scalability essential for modern defense systems, empowering partners, like Axiro, to deliver innovative, high-performance solutions to meet the sector’s rising demands.”

“We selected Tower Semiconductor for their unparalleled SiGe technology expertise, which is fundamental to achieving the superior performance of our radar BFICs,” said Naveen Yanduru, CEO of Axiro Semiconductor. “As a U.S.-based company, we design and deliver our domestically engineered solutions directly to American defense prime contractors. Working with Tower’s US facility enables us to reinforce our commitment to secure, mission-critical technology within the U.S. defense supply chain.”

Tower Semiconductor will be participating in upcoming SPIE Defense and Security 2026, taking place April 28 - 30, 2026 in National Harbor, MD, booth #739.
