FM Series

Winch-driven vehicle and trailer mast

The FM Series is a winch-driven telescoping mast for vehicle, trailer and fixed-site installations. Its simple, all-aluminum and stainless steel design is built for years of dependable service with almost no maintenance: an occasional rinse with clean water is all it needs. FM Series masts are in service on U.S. military HMMWV camera and antenna platforms, U.S. Navy trailer-based weather stations in Antarctica, Border Patrol truck-bed skids, and Cell On Wheels for communications providers. Every mast adapts to your platform: HMMWV bumper, trailer, receiver hitch, ground, wall or the transportable QuadPod mount. When the requirement does not fit a catalog option, BlueSky builds the custom integration.

Cameras and antennas on the move need a mast that rides with the vehicle. FM Series masts are in service on HMMWV bumper-mounted ISR platforms.

Remote stations must run for years without a technician. FM Series masts are in service on trailer-based weather stations in Antarctica.

Patrol teams need elevated surveillance wherever the truck goes. FM Series masts are in service on truck-bed skids for border patrol and law enforcement.
