Purpose-Built Performance
Proprietary Axial Flux Motor Design
BlueSky Mobile Power designs and manufactures its own axial flux motors, precisely tuned to our engines maximum performance. This unique capability enables us to tailor output for diverse applications needs:
-
28 VDC low-voltage, high-current traditional combat vehicles
-
600 VDC high-voltage hybrid and autonomous platforms
Smarter control.
Effortless integration.
Custom Power Electronics & Seamless Integration
Our power electronics are designed and manufactured specifically for our system with our partner, Trust Automation. These units utilize full Digital Signal Processors (DSPs) with standard CANbus control, ensuring highly efficient operation and easy, robust integration into larger vehicle and fleet management systems.
Engineered to outlast the mission
Durability in the Harshest Environments
Our core innovation is based on our proprietary BMP-478 engine. With this engine, we are able to produce 5kW output without derating in the harshest desert environment (135F ambient), and up to 6.5 kW in battle mode. Load based variable maintenance intervals result in a system that runs longer, requires significantly extended maintenance intervals, and drastically lowers the cost of ownership over time.
50% Increased efficiency
across every load
Unmatched Operational Efficiency
(Low-Load Performance)
Our systems utilize the aforementioned advanced power electronics that are not dependent on a fixed engine speed, unlike traditional generators. This technological advantage allows our APUs to operate with a relatively flat efficiency curve across the full load range. This means the system remains highly fuel-efficient even at low loads, making our APUs up to 50% more efficient at lower loads compared to conventional military gensets, and totally eliminating wet stacking.
American Built.
Mission secured.
Unbreakable U.S. Supply Chain
We recognize that for defense partners, where the power comes from is as critical as how much power it provides. The BMP 478 engine is assembled 100% in the United States with >75% US content and no Chinese parts in our quality-certified facility. This secures the supply chain, ensures the highest quality, and allows us to provide full Right to Repair (R2R) support directly to our customers.

DEVCOM C5ISR - APG
From Concept to Field
Built to Deploy. Engineered to Perform.
Our core technology centers on the recently acquired BMP-478 engine, which is currently the world's smallest, automotive, production, common rail diesel engine. We are in the process of rehoming its production to the United States, establishing a domestic capacity of 30,000 engines a year.
In short, we build the engines and power units that keep advanced equipment running in the toughest environments.
Our primary product is a family of Auxiliary Power Units (APUs) designed specifically for C5ISR (Command, Control, Computers, Communications, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) systems on ground vehicles. These systems demand power that is small, light, and reliable, which is why the industry refers to them using the acronym SWaP (Size, Weight, and Power).
The result: unmatched fuel efficiency, minimal acoustic signature, and seamless integration across tactical vehicles, trailers, and shelters.
In essence, BlueSky Mobile Power doesn't just deliver electricity. We deliver mission assurance and superior efficiency.
BlueSky Mobile Power provides the confidence that tactical power will be available when and where it's needed most--built right here in America.
BSI has complete ownership of the engine from the R&D stage to the final product. All IP including CAD assembly, PLM, manufacturing drawings, supplier quality data, assembly instructions, test data, development data, assembly line, automated test cells, & tooling for parts.
Built for the field. Ready for the world.
Power that Adapts to the Mission
From combat outposts to construction sites, BlueSky Mobile Power is a dual-use company. While we predominantly serve the military, we offer this same advanced capability to industrial and commercial applications, successfully bringing robust power generation back to the USA, especially for homeland security applications.

Mission
Unlike traditional gensets that burn fuel inefficiently at low or variable loads, BlueSky’s hybrid APUs maintain high fuel efficiency across the entire operating range — from light to full load — reducing fuel costs and resupply risks.
Maintain operational silence without shutting down. Integrated battery support enables silent watch operations, keeping mission-critical systems online without the noise or thermal signature of idling engines.
Designed for on-the-move (OTM) operations, these systems are lightweight and scalable. Mount them on tactical vehicles, trailers, or deployable kits — wherever reliable power is needed, without the bulk.
Peak shaving allows you to size your power generation system to your average load, no longer requiring you to carry a larger generator to support a short, peak load. Small enough to fit in the bed of a HMMWV or ISV means fewer convoys, less generator trailers, lower costs, and greater agility at the edge.
Developed in collaboration with Army DEVCOM, and field-tested, BlueSky’s Hybrid Power Generation Systems are already trusted in the field – not just a concept, but a combat-ready solution.
Designed using digital twin simulations and model-based engineering, BlueSky’s APUs accelerate development and ensure reliability — shortening timelines from concept to deployment.
