Mercury Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRCY, www.mrcy.com))), a technology company that delivers mission-critical processing to the edge, today announced it has been selected by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) for funding through its Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment (IBAS) Program to develop a next-generation RF signal conditioning multi-chip package (MCP). The IBAS Program aims to improve the readiness and competitiveness of the defense industrial base through investments in high-priority domestic technologies and supply chains.

Under a two-year, $8.5 million contract with commercial partner Systems Innovation Engineering, Mercury will develop and demonstrate a new solution designed to enhance the performance and cost of X-band Active Electronically Steered Array (AESA) radars used in air, sea, and ground-based applications. This ultra-compact signal conditioning package will leverage Mercury expertise and innovation in microwave and mixed signal technologies to reduce the size, weight, and power requirements of these integrated assemblies by more than 80% compared to existing hardware. By leveraging state-of-the-art processes, this capability will be more producible, affordability will be improved, and high-volume missions will be enabled.
