L3 Harris lands multimillion dollar radio deal from Marine Corps
L3 Harris lands multimillion dollar radio deal from Marine Corps
L3Harris Technologies received orders totaling $160 million from the Marine Corps for its multi-channel handheld and vehicular radio systems, which are made in Rochester.
The two new orders from the Marine Corps are under a 10-year, competitively awarded $750 million indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract for L3Harris Falcon IV manpack and handheld radios. The technology in the radios enables greater interoperability among U.S. and allied forces.
“The resilient communications our battle-proven radios and secure waveforms offer allow Marines to talk to each other with confidence and exchange information at faster rates,” said Chris Aebli, president of Tactical Communication at L3Harris. “These radios are the most advanced systems industry can put into the hands of our warfighters, delivering enhanced capabilities to address evolving threats.”
The latest Marine Corps commitments follow two Falcon IV orders from the U.S. Army last year totaling $235 million.
