Mercury Mission Systems LLC

Mercury Mission Systems LLC, a Gulf Breeze, Florida-based subsidiary of Mercury Systems Inc., delivers design, manufacture, repair, and integration of advanced avionics and mission-critical electronic systems for military aircraft platforms as a prime contractor across multiple indefinite delivery contracts and firm fixed-price delivery orders. The company competes exclusively full-and-open with no set-aside designations across its federal footprint, holding 95 percent of awards as prime contracts and 5 percent as subcontracted work.

Mercury Mission Systems concentrates on cockpit communications control systems, forward-looking infrared display units, pressure altimeters, and avionics repair services for fighter jets and helicopters. Representative prime work includes a $5.2 million delivery order from the Air Force Materiel Command Aeronautical Systems Center (awarded August 2025) for C3PO (Cockpit Communications Control Panel Organizer) units on F-16 aircraft with completion by October 2027; a $4.35 million delivery order from the same command (awarded March 2023) for F-16 C3PO production, software support, and prototypes; a $585 thousand definitive contract from Naval Supply Systems Command (awarded November 2025) for seven altimeter pressure units; and a $787 thousand delivery order from the Aeronautical Systems Center (awarded July 2026) for F-16 C3PO software support through November 2026. The company also holds single-award indefinite delivery contracts valued at $45 million with the Air Force Materiel Command Aeronautical Systems Center for F-16 C3PO products and services, $435 thousand with Air Combat Command for cabin pressure indicator repair through February 2030, $183 thousand with the Air Force Sustainment Center for Starfire Forward Looking Infrared system repairs on UH-1N helicopters through January 2028, and $5 million with U.S. Special Operations Command for global special operations support through September 2027.

Customer concentration is acute. The top five agencies by award count account for 49 percent of awards, with the Air Force Sustainment Center leading at 66 awards and the Navy's Naval Supply Systems Command second at 32 awards. However, the top customers by potential value diverge sharply: the Air Force Materiel Command Aeronautical Systems Center dominates with 15 awards valued at $87.5 million combined potential value (61 percent of the company's entire portfolio), followed by U.S. Special Operations Command at $9 million and the Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex at $8.3 million. This concentration in the Aeronautical Systems Center reflects Mercury Mission Systems' established role as a primary supplier of F-16 avionics components.

Mercury Mission Systems places task orders primarily through the GSA Federal Supply Schedule GS24F0024L (79 task orders, $5.5 million combined potential value) and a series of Air Force single-award indefinite delivery contracts. The company's three largest parent vehicles by dollar value are the Air Force indefinite delivery contracts FA861520D6070 (13 task orders, $16.8 million), H9224116D0002 (13 task orders, $1.4 million), and FA852417D0006 (18 task orders, $236 thousand).

Activity has remained relatively steady across the past five years with an uptick in 2025 (16 awards) before leveling to six awards year-to-date in 2026. Six awards with a combined potential value of $10.4 million reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete exposure.

In its subcontractor role, Mercury Mission Systems provides avionics components, electrical systems, and technical program management under major primes including The Boeing Company (retrofit kits, systems components), Sierra Nevada Company (airborne mission networking kits, video converters, DVEPS units), Defense Systems and Solutions (V-22 management materials, UH-60M aircraft design and modification), Bell Textron (Future Vertical Lift program technical program management), and Science Applications International Corporation (aviation systems engineering services for hardware-in-the-loop simulators on the GSA OASIS UR vehicle). These subcontract relationships center on platform integration and support for rotary-wing and special operations aircraft.

Mercury Mission Systems' core capability portfolio aligns with its parent company's defense electronics focus but operates as a distinct operational unit. The company draws on Mercury Systems Inc.'s broader portfolio of indefinite delivery vehicles and subcontract relationships while maintaining direct customer relationships with the Air Force Materiel Command, Naval Supply Systems Command, Air Combat Command, Air Force Sustainment Center, U.S. Special Operations Command, and the Navy's Naval Air Systems Command. The subsidiary's $142.6 million combined potential value across 334 awards (with $78.9 million obligated to date) positions it as a specialized supplier of flight-critical avionics components rather than a broad systems integrator; work concentrates on component-level repair, production, and integration rather than platform-level prime roles.
