Program
- Platform agnostic approach could enhance NATO military
advantage past 2035
- Integrates five international defense and technology companies
with “shared vision”
L3Harris Technologies (NYSE:LHX) has announced its five team
members to bid on the Alliance Future Surveillance and Control
(AFSC) program, designed to help NATO replace its Airborne Warning
and Control System by 2035.
The team is developing “system-of-systems” options for
surveillance and control capabilities across all domains for NATO’s
AFSC program. These options provide better intelligence and more
responsive control by enabling sensors and systems to share
information in air, ground, maritime or space.
The L3Harris team includes defense and security electronics
pioneer Hensoldt (Germany); the global, technology-forward
solutions company Jacobs (United Kingdom); ground/maritime battle
management and command and control leader General Dynamics (Canada
& Italy); modeling and simulation synthetic environment leader
CAE (Canada); and air command and control (C2), tactical data links
and satellite connectivity from global communications leader Viasat
(United States).
"The L3Harris team has a shared vision – center on the data
enterprise or digital backbone via procurement and integration of a
multi-domain AFSC capability,” said Charles R. “CR” Davis, Vice
President, L3Harris International. “With collaboration and
innovation at the heart of everything we do, the integrated team
harnesses the strengths of world-leading experts and leverages
decades of diverse experience across all domains.”
The international team will analyze the risks and feasibility of
candidate systems-of-systems to enhance the NATO Alliance’s
military advantage to 2035 and beyond. The L3Harris team has a
unique platform-agnostic approach to NATO’s feasibility study,
enabling the delivery of a transformational concept with actionable
recommendations.
L3Harris and teammates delivered a High Level Technical Concept
(HLTC) study to NATO in 2020. The HLTC focused on data-centric
architecture, all aspects of multi-domain surveillance, and control
over the full spectrum of benign, permissive, contested and denied
operational environments.
