ROCHESTER, N.Y., March 26 (UPI) -- An unidentified country belonging to NATO has ordered secure tactical radios for its military from the Harris Corporation of the United States.
The order is worth $25 million, Harris said, but no details were given as to the number of units to be supplied or their delivery schedule.
Harris Corporation said it will provide the customer with two variants of its Falcon III communications systems -- Falcon III AN/PRC-117G manpack and AN/PRC-152A handheld radios. Both feature the company's adaptive networking wideband waveform, which enables military forces to leverage advanced battle management applications such as collaborative chat, streaming video and intelligence collection.
"Harris' field-proven Falcon III products and systems continue to meet the growing demands for wideband data and tactical networking in countries around the world," said Brendan O'Connell, president, Tactical Communications, Harris RF Communications. "Our radios seamlessly connect NATO and allied forces by making it easier to securely exchange voice, data and situational awareness, even while on the move."
