L3Harris demonstrates interoperable network to unify Department of War and U.S. government agencies

L3Harris Technologies hosted U.S. government officials for a first-of-its-kind demonstration of software-defined capabilities that enable separate federal agencies to communicate instantly across domains.

The full-scale, end-to-end demonstration united tactical communications devices, counter-UAS capabilities, advanced imaging technologies and mobile operations centers with command-and-control systems, successfully illustrating unmatched connectivity and rapid response to national security threats.

“We’re answering Secretary Hegseth’s call to secure our borders and protect the homeland with interoperable capabilities that are more advanced than anything on the market,” says Sam Mehta, President, Communication Systems, L3Harris. “We know that speed wins and hesitation loses, and our commercial business model enables delivery of these capabilities into warfighters’ hands in weeks, not years.”

Key technologies highlighted in the demonstration included T-HAWC, the AN/PRC-158C software-defined data device and 5G gateway solutions. The interconnected systems used a mix of public safety and tactical radios across manned and unmanned assets – a necessity for today’s complex environment.

These resilient, multi-path solutions maintain connectivity even in degraded and contested conditions for the Department of War, other federal agencies, and during disaster response and large-scale events.
