“We are happy to be able to contribute to the continued success of our long time customer, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems,” said Brian Hoerl, vice president of sales at Mercury Computer Systems, Inc. “Our subsystems support multiple generations of Lynx radars. We’ve delivered the performance improvements needed for new capabilities while supporting software portability across the generations.”
Mercury supplied subsystems with faster processing components and enhanced memory to support the enhanced radar performance. Mercury consultants also assisted with the development and optimization of algorithms for Space Time Adaptive Processing (STAP), a critical function within the Dual Beam radar.
