Mercury To Provide Upgraded Processing Power for Refueling System on USAF's KC-46A Tanker Fleet

Mercury Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MRCY, www.mrcy.com), a technology company that delivers mission-critical processing power to the edge, announced today that it signed a contract with Boeing to deliver FPGA processor boards that will support an upgraded refueling system on the U.S. Air Force’s KC-46A tanker aircraft fleet.

Mercury’s SCFE3920 boards are an integral part of the next-generation KC-46A Remote Vision System (RVS) 2.0. Designed for high-speed data processing and seamless system integration, Mercury’s boards will connect directly to cameras on the plane to process the high-resolution, color video feeds that provide KC-46A operators with a clear and precise view of the refueling process.

Mercury has already delivered hundreds of boards for the upgraded KC-46A refueling system to support development testing. Under the new contract, Mercury will deliver to Boeing approximately 1,500 production boards that will support equipping RVS 2.0 on KC-46 aircraft for the United States and allied nations.
