was formed in 1996 to answer the general aviation industry’s call for a “clean sheet” compression-ignition engine. By 1997, DeltaHawk developed a prototype engine running on a static Velocity airframe. Today, DeltaHawk continues to anticipate and exceed the needs of general aviation. And in 2018, plans to test and certify their multi-fuel (Diesel or Jet-A) 160-200 horsepower engine family for Fede
ral Aviation Administration (FAA) certification; resulting in the smallest, lightest, most fuel-efficient and reliable multi-fuel engines on the market. Aviation applications range from small two-seat Light Sport Aircraft at the lower end of the power range, to 6-seat single engine and 12-seat twin engine fixed wing aircraft and 4-seat helicopters at the high end; as well as civilian and military drones. The DeltaHawk family of heavy-fuel piston engines combines long-established diesel engine principles with modern materials and design. This forward thinking produces a high power-to-weight ratio product with the added benefit of reduced fuel consumption as compared to equivalent gasoline engines. Because of their simple, durable and compact design DeltaHawk engines have found use in these applications: Drones, Land Vehicles, Generators, Compressors, Marine Use, Mineral Exploration, and other space and weight restricted applications. As DeltaHawk explores the future, the company is committed to building the finest heavy-fuel diesel engines available.
