Harris provides Falcon III tactical radios
Harris Corporation has been awarded an order worth $26 million to provide Falcon III tactical radios to support special operations forces in an undisclosed Central Asian nation.
Under the contract, Harris will supply its RF-7850S wideband secure personal radio as well as the RF-7800H-MP wideband HF/VHF tactical manpack radio to expand long-range and beyond-line-of-sight data capabilities.
The company will also provide its RF-7850M-HH multiband networking handheld radio to provide wideband communications and mobile ad hoc networking while supporting legacy narrowband waveforms.
Chris Young, president, Harris Communication Systems, said: ‘The Harris radios will provide the critical, secure voice and data communications required by special operations forces engaged in combat operations. With these orders, our customer is further standardising the use of Harris tactical communications systems by its elite forces.’
