Harris Corporation has served the U.S. Army for more than 50 years, providing secure and reliable communications systems to give the warfighter a tactical advantage through improved situational awareness and Command and Control (C2). Harris supports the U.S. Department of Defense’s tactical radio modernization initiatives including the HMS Manpack, Mid-tier Networking Vehicular Radio (MNVR) and the next generation handheld radio for U.S. Special Operations to name a few of the many programs to which Harris contributes.

Harris next generation radios—handhelds, manpacks, vehicular-mounted, and airborne—include multi-band, multi-session, legacy system compatible tactical radios, which address the complete range of current mission and interoperability requirements that are fully upgradeable to address changing technical standards and mission requirements of the future. The advantages of Harris radios include: the support of wideband networking waveforms, extended frequency range and significant reductions in size, weight and power (SWaP) compared with previous generations.

Bridging the gap between civilian and military, Harris’ P25 compatible networks link nearly 20 military bases, providing the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps with wireless communications on base and throughout the National Capitol Region.
