The company will be providing mission-critical servers for a leading defense contractor.

Mercury Systems has received a $10.8 million order from a leading defense prime contractor for rugged servers that will become part of a military communications system application. The enterprise class servers have been successfully deployed in a broad range of C4ISR mission-critical applications and were selected in part for their excellent track record of performance and reliability. They have been designed for longevity in challenging environments, applying design practices of optimized size, weight, and power (SWaP) to bring cutting-edge commercial technologies to mission-critical defense-related applications.
