Thanks to their exceptional performance under extreme operating conditions, Berylco beryllium copper alloys play a vital role in telecommunications systems, radar, missile guidance, and pilot assistance systems. They are used in connectors for military aircraft as well as in the electrical and electronic equipment of naval and ground forces. These alloys also provide effective electromagnetic interference shielding solutions.

In December 2024, NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) published a list of 12 strategic raw materials essential to the defense industry, which includes beryllium—used in electronic components, guidance systems, and weapons.
