US Army Selects L3Harris to Support NGC2 Program

MELBOURNE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The U.S. Army has selected L3Harris Technologies’ (NYSE: LHX) software-defined data devices to support the Next Generation Command and Control (NGC2) transport layer requirements with a $24 million award. The company will deliver the new AN/PRC-158C NGC2 Gateway Manpack to the Army’s 4th Infantry Division in advance of their scheduled participation in Project Convergence 2026.

“The Army’s NGC2 program is too important to accept anything less than success in execution, including system protection against device compromise, external threats to the network and data spillage,” said Sam Mehta, President, Communication Systems, L3Harris. “We are the only industry partner delivering battle-proven, software-defined radio technology that meets the Department of War’s appetite for high-data throughput with the network security, resilience and integrity required to ensure battlespace supremacy against any enemy daring to test America’s military might.”

The L3Harris data device meets the demands for high-data throughput to enable the data fabric for NGC2. These devices provide multiple transport options offering true resilience and interoperability from NATO to Homeland Security.

L3Harris has supported major Army initiatives, including the HMS program, with relentless innovation and steadfast commitment to excellence for 90 years. The power of the company’s software-defined architectures and commercial business model, when applied to tactical communication systems, drives L3Harris’ agile response to urgent and emerging customer requirements at a moment’s notice.
