ANDOVER, Mass., May 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Mercury Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MRCY, http://www.mrcy.com), a global leader in aerospace and defense electronics, today announced that it has been awarded a multi-year contract to supply 1,000 of its RTBX06 BuiltSECURE™ servers to Blue Raven, a leading distributor in the defense industry.
By leveraging Mercury’s common processing architecture, Robust Trusted BuiltSECURE™ (RTB) servers provide uncompromised security for processing at the edge, maintaining system-wide integrity and protecting critical data and technology from loss or compromise. Featuring US-designed and manufactured motherboards, the latest data center-class computing technology, and secure processing technology, these secure servers are the platform of choice for mission-critical applications.

This contract award represents Mercury’s largest single order for these systems and an important step toward increasing availability and reducing lead times for customers. Under the contract, Mercury will manufacture, configure and support the servers, while Blue Raven will focus on global resale and distribution.
“This contract is further evidence of the strong demand for our BuiltSECURE™ product line and the advanced secure processing capabilities it provides for critical defense systems,” said Lee Provost, Mercury’s Senior Vice President of Growth. “By working with Blue Raven, we are making it easier, more affordable and faster for customers to deploy this mission-critical capability that supports deterrence and delivers a decisive warfighting advantage.”
“We are excited to partner with Mercury to grow the BuiltSECURE™ market across a broader range of platforms, fleets and mission profiles,” said Paul Elefonte, Chief Growth Officer at Blue Raven. “This collaboration will help improve accessibility, shorten lead times and maintain price stability, creating a stronger path to deploy these advanced capabilities at scale.”
