Harris AN/PRC-117G NSA certified
Harris Corporation’s Falcon III AN/PRC-117G Multiband Networking Manpack Radio has been cleared to run the Mobile User Objective System (MUOS) waveform following Type-1 National Security Agency (NSA) certification.
The certification allows secure voice and data communications on the AN/PRC-117G using the MUOS waveform.
MUOS is the next-generation US Department of Defense military communications system for delivering mobile satellite connectivity through tactical radios.
Harris has delivered more than 30,000 MUOS-capable AN/PRC-117G tactical radios which will be able to deliver the enhanced capability to warfighters with a software upgrade, a diplexer and an antenna kit.
Chris Young, president, Harris Communication Systems, said: ‘This NSA certification for the MUOS-enabled AN/PRC-117G allows us to continue providing value and leading-edge communications technology to the warfighter on the battlefield.’
