"This order exemplifies how Mercury’s innovative, affordable, open systems architecture-based solutions support systems that provide the critical electronic warfare information our warfighters need to make timely and accurate operational decisions."
Mercury’s signal processing technology is expected to provide lower ownership costs for the customer’s critical airborne programme.
In January, the company was contracted to support an airborne sensor processing application for fighter aircraft.
