Mercury Systems expands Phoenix campus by 50,000 square feet for defense work

Mercury Systems has expanded its Phoenix manufacturing campus by 50,000 square feet with a highly automated facility intended to increase production capacity and speed deliveries for U.S. and allied defense programs. The new building began operating in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 and will support critical products, including the company’s Common Processing Architecture programs. Mercury expects the expansion to add more than 50 jobs over the next year; the Phoenix campus is its largest manufacturing center, with more than 400 employees. The company says the added capacity will help meet strong customer demand for defense electronics.
