Mercury Systems Delivers Full Range of Flight Safety Assurance to Mission-Critical Aerospace and Defense Programs
June 13 2019 - 4:15PM
Mercury Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MRCY, www.mrcy.com) announced today
the availability of the full range of flight-safety certification
levels in its ROCK-2 mission computing architecture, allowing
customers to focus on developing critical aviation applications,
while reducing system development time and cost. As requirements
for flight-safety certification increase, ROCK-2 customers now have
access to the complete range of design assurance levels (DAL), from
DAL-E to the highest, DAL-A, and the critical safety assurance they
need for a growing number of mission-critical applications,
including avionics, vetronics for defense and commercial fixed and
rotary-wing platforms, ground stations, unmanned aerial vehicles
(UAVs), and urban air mobility platforms (UAM).
“Customers can be assured that no matter what their
safety-critical needs, the commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) ROCK-2
platform will meet their flight-safety requirements,” said Ike
Song, Mercury’s Vice President and General Manager for Mercury’s
Mission Systems group. “Designed and built using long-life,
state-of-the-art COTS components, the ROCK-2 architecture delivers
on Mercury’s commitment to enable smart, capable platforms that
provide customers the high-performance, safety-critical mission
processing solutions they demand.”
The ROCK-2 architecture features BuiltSAFE™ technology, bringing
the highest level of flight-safety assurance to aerospace and
defense applications. The ROCK-2 platform is an open
systems-compliant, 3U OpenVPX™ form factor that is fully compatible
with the Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA). Together, ROCK-2
and BuiltSAFE™ offer customers an extensive portfolio of
interoperable processing hardware, software, networking, datalink,
graphics and I/O building blocks with supporting flight-safety
certification artifacts, so their solutions can be deployed quickly
with less program and schedule risk, and at a lower total cost of
ownership than traditional systems.
In addition, with both NXP® and multi-core Intel® processing
options, as well as the support of multiple certifiable real-time
operating systems, ROCK-2 solutions also deliver next-generation
processing performance. From design to full product support, the
included reusable DAL artifacts simplify the flight-safety
certification process for both hardware (DO-254) and software
(DO-178B/C) for greater program velocity with reduced risk.
