ERA specializes in quiet, fuel efficient engines for unmanned aerial vehicles.

Through past prime federal contract awards, ERA has conducted research and development of ultra-quiet, long endurance engines for small unmanned aircraft systems on behalf of the Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory. This included Phase I and Phase II awards under the Small Business Innovation Research program to advance quiet electric propulsion and alternative fuels capabilities. ERA was awarded a $1.24 million firm fixed price purchase order in August 2023 to develop extended operation engines meeting stringent acoustic requirements over a 25-month period. Additionally, ERA was awarded a $745,156 firm fixed price purchase order in October 2021 to continue research on an ultra-quiet alternative fuels engine for 30 months. Both awards were set aside for total small business participation. ERA also has a prior 2019 award from the Air Force Research Laboratory worth $748,472 for a Phase II Small Business Innovation Research effort, developing advanced materials and seals for heavy fuel propulsion systems on remotely piloted aircraft.

SBA capabilities narrative

ERA is the inventor and manufacturer of MCC engines, fluid mechanisms and compressors. MCC engines provide ultra-quiet, multifuel operation for commercial and military generator and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems. MCC engines are nearly as quiet as electric motors, can operate on eco-friendly biofuels and safer military fuels. MCC engines are also half the weight and at least 30% lower cost to manufacture. This technology is also being developed for quiet, compact, low-cost compressors. ERA also provides engineering, product development support, refinement and machining services. We have over twenty years of experience in full life cycle product development which includes 3D CAD design, modeling, simulation, finite element analysis (FEA), Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), prototype fabrication, testing and production fabrication.
