Proven BuiltSAFE™

Mercury airborne and mission computers are architected with Mercury's proven BuiltSAFE™ commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) elements and artifacts that have been tested, certified and fielded  over three decades and meet the highest Design Assurance Level (DAL) objectives of DO- 178C and DO-254.

Modular and reusable, BuiltSAFE technologies maximize interoperability and speed technology refresh by minimizing the need  for recertification. Learn more about the importance of design assurance in this blog post
