Harris Corporation has received a $66.3 million order from the US Army via the GSA, FAS Assisted Acquisition Services to provide Falcon III AN/PRC-117G multiband manpack radios in support of the modernisation of Brigade Combat Team tactical communications.

The radios will provide high performance voice and wideband data capabilities to connect the tactical edge with forces at company level and above.

The Harris radios will become an integral part of the Army’s emerging tactical network to connect all levels of the battlefield to robust, secure voice and wideband data communications.

The AN/PRC-117G delivers enhanced command and control and situational awareness through applications such as streaming video, collaborative chat, biometric enrollment and secure network connectivity.

The Army has identified development of the tactical network as its top modernisation priority.

In addition to AN/PRC-117G radios, Harris is providing AN/VRC-114 vehicular amplifier adapters, spare radio kits, training and installation to the Army in connection with its rollout of a broad network-centric battlefield communications system. – Defpro news
