DeltaHawk Engines, based in Racine, Wisconsin, is pioneering the future of propulsion for Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) and advanced aviation platforms. At the forefront of this innovation is DeltaHawk’s lightweight, heavy-fuel 2-cylinder variant, an enabling technology designed to extend endurance, reduce acoustic and thermal signatures, and dramatically improve power density for Group 2 through 4 military and commercial UAS. This engine architecture offers unmatched reliability in austere environments while remaining adaptable for ducted fan, tractor, or pusher configurations. DeltaHawk is the developer of the first new FAA type-certified piston engine architecture in over 60 years, offering scalable diesel-cycle propulsion powered by jet fuel and sustainable aviation fuels (SAF). DeltaHawk engines deliver exceptional simplicity, efficiency, and environmental performance, burning significantly less fuel than turbine engines and eliminating the use of toxic leaded aviation fuels. With fewer moving parts, external component access, and full mechanical operation independent of electrical systems, DeltaHawk’s engines are ideal for unmanned and hybrid-electric use cases. From general aviation to cutting-edge UAS platforms, DeltaHawk’s scalable engine line is setting a new standard for high-performance, fuel-agnostic power in the 21st century battlespace and beyond.
