Defense

AIRCO has partnered with the U.S. Department of Defense to accelerate the integration of resilient, low-impact fuel solutions into military operations.
As one of the first companies to prove that its CO₂-derived synthetic fuels can power vehicles across air, land, and sea, AIRCO has demonstrated the power, versatility, and real-world potential of its cutting-edge AIRMADE™ Technology.
Air
In partnership with the Air Force’s Project FIERCE, AIRCO achieved the first-ever unmanned flight powered by 100% synthetic jet fuel derived from CO₂. This noteworthy flight, utilizing AIRMADE® SAF, underscored AIRCO’s capacity to supply fuel for military aviation.
Land
AIRCO showcased its CO₂-derived AIRMADE® Fuel in a Polaris MRZR tactical vehicle at the U.S. Military Academy. The fuel matched fossil diesel performance with reduced exhaust smoke. This demonstration capped a study showing the viability of AIRMADE® Fuel production that could be integrated in an Army nuclear reactor energy hub, which is intended to bring back nuclear reactor operations to the Department of the Army for the first time in 50 years.
Sea
AIRMADE® Fuel powered a 5.1m SeaFox II RHIB for over six hours at NPS’s JIFX program and a 7.0m 300hp Zodiac RHIB at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek. In both tests, the fuel delivered identical performance to traditional diesel with significantly less exhaust smoke.
Our collaboration with the DoD advances cutting- edge research and development of our proprietary AIRMADE™ Technology, meeting the growing demand for secure, reliable, and flexible energy solutions across industries.
Scalable
AIRMADE™ accelerates the scaling of synthetic CO₂-based drop-in fuels and SAF that meet ASTM standards, ensuring seamless integration into existing infrastructure—no blending needed.
Adaptable
Engineered for deployment across diverse environments, AIRMADE™ delivers a reliable fuel supply near end-users, streamlining logistics and enhancing efficiency.
Flexible
Integrates effortlessly with existing energy and industrial systems, optimizing current infrastructure without disruption.
Reliable
Bolsters energy independence and security with a reliable, disruption-resistant fuel supply, harnessing abundant feedstocks for a for a more secure energy future.
