Mercury Computer Systems Commends Successful ACB-12 Aegis SPY-1 Radar System Live Aircraft Test Flight
CHELMSFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mercury Computer Systems Inc., (NASDAQ: MRCY, www.mc.com), a trusted provider of commercially developed ISR subsystems, applauds the successful performance of Lockheed Martin’s multi-mission signal processor (MMSP), which identified and tracked numerous live targets in a recent live aircraft test. Part of the ACB-12 Aegis SPY-1 radar system, the MMSP provides next-generation Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense and Anti-Air Warfare capabilities in an open combat system architecture for the U.S. Navy.
“It proves that through purposeful evolution and open architecture, a program like Aegis can not only align with the Department of Defense’s directive on affordability and productivity to remain viable, but by leveraging innovative, open systems, it can expand its role as a powerful national asset.”
“This test represents a significant milestone for the Aegis MMSP, and Mercury is proud to have Lockheed Martin as a teammate and business-to-business mentor,” said Didier Thibaud, senior vice president and general manager of Advanced Computing Solutions at Mercury. “It proves that through purposeful evolution and open architecture, a program like Aegis can not only align with the Department of Defense’s directive on affordability and productivity to remain viable, but by leveraging innovative, open systems, it can expand its role as a powerful national asset.”
As part of the Aegis Modernization Program, MMSP is scheduled for installation on guided missile destroyers currently equipped with the Aegis Weapon System beginning in 2012. Lockheed Martin is performing systems engineering to upgrade the Aegis system to an open architecture design that enables affordable technology refreshes and capability upgrades, through both new technology development and infusion of third-party products. Mercury Computer Systems, a partner on the Aegis program with Lockheed Martin for more than a decade, is supplying subsystems and technology integration services for Aegis Modernization, Aegis sea-based missile defense, and the land-based Aegis Ashore system.
