Mercury Systems, a leader in trusted, secure mission-critical technologies for aerospace and defense, announced that it has received orders worth $11.7 million from the U.S. Navy. This is against previously announced orders worth $152 million under the 5-year sole-source basic ordering agreement (BOA) to deliver advanced Digital RF Memory (DRFM) jammers. The orders were received in the fourth quarter of the Company's fiscal 2020 year and are expected to be delivered over the next several quarters.
Mercury DRFM jammers are size, weight and power (SWaP) optimized to meet the electronic protection requirements of airborne pod-based solutions and incorporate decades of DRFM technology development, validated electronic attack techniques and custom RF components purpose-built to support advanced electronic warfare test and training capabilities.
Mark Bruington, Vice President of Mercury’s Processing division stated that their advanced DRFM systems are a critical tool for providing realistic electronic threats for Naval testing, evaluation and training. It’s part of their commitment to develop and produce a simultaneous multiple-threat processing system with a flexible architecture that can evolve to keep pace with emerging threats, delivering Innovation that Matters to the service men and women in the field.
