L3Harris Technologies, Inc.

L3Harris Technologies, Inc., Space And Airborne Systems Division manufactures and repairs radar systems, bomb rack units, antenna assemblies, and electronic components for defense and civilian federal agencies as a prime contractor competing in the full-and-open market without small-business set-asides.

The division is a subsidiary of L3Harris Technologies, Inc., a large defense contractor headquartered in Melbourne, Florida. The Space and Airborne Systems Division operates from Amityville, New York and manufactures specialized aerospace and defense electronic systems. The division serves the federal government exclusively through prime contracts and indefinite delivery vehicles; it does not pursue small-business set-aside opportunities.

The division's core capabilities center on airborne radar systems, bomb rack units (BRU-57, BRU-68, BRU-71, BRU-55), sonobuoy launchers, multi-mode radar repair and components, antenna systems, and aircraft electronic assemblies. Representative recent prime work includes a $40.2 million firm fixed-price definitive contract from Naval Air Systems Command (awarded July 2025) for 31 P-8A Poseidon bomb rack unit ship sets (14 for the U.S. Navy, 14 for Canada, 3 for Germany) with completion targeted August 31, 2030; a $59.1 million single-award indefinite delivery contract from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (awarded February 2026) for the AN/APY-11 Multi-Mode Radar system procurement for C-130J aircraft integration through February 2031; a $36.3 million indefinite delivery contract from the U.S. Coast Guard (awarded July 2023) for repair of multi-mode radar components and support for C-130 aircraft through December 2026; and a $11.5 million delivery order from the Coast Guard (awarded November 2025) for multi-mode radar component repairs at Elizabeth City, North Carolina, with completion scheduled November 2028.

Customer concentration is acute across defense procurement. The top five funding agencies account for 81% of award count: Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (445 awards, $118.4 million), Naval Supply Systems Command (380 awards, $112.6 million), Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (322 awards, $31.1 million), Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center (138 awards, $501.2 million), and the Department of Homeland Security U.S. Coast Guard (101 awards, $216.1 million). Dollar concentration diverges sharply from award count: Air Force Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex anchors the portfolio with 8 awards valued at $920.6 million (primarily bomb rack unit production), followed by Air Force Sustainment Center ($501.2 million across 138 awards), Naval Air Systems Command ($335.4 million across 67 awards), the Coast Guard ($216.1 million), and Air Force Lifecycle Management Center ($207.7 million across 63 awards). Together these five entities represent 78% of combined potential value despite accounting for only a fraction of award count, signaling large-dollar development and production programs mixed with high-volume spare-parts procurement.

The division holds multiple single-award indefinite delivery vehicles. The largest named vehicles in the portfolio include Basic Ordering Agreement N0038320GVC01 with Naval Supply Systems Command (116 task orders, $45.1 million); Basic Ordering Agreement N0038314G025F with Naval Supply Systems Command (64 task orders, $30.4 million); Indefinite Delivery Contract FA852214D0002 with Air Force Materiel Command (29 task orders, $72.2 million); and Indefinite Delivery Contract N0038305G047B with Naval Supply Systems Command (64 task orders, $6.7 million). The division operates entirely as a prime contractor; 98% of awards are prime contracts or IDVs, with only 2% (39 awards) as a named subcontractor to Lockheed Martin, General Atomics, The Boeing Company, Northrop Grumman, and Raytheon on F-35, P-8A Poseidon, MQ-9 Reaper, and missile programs delivering bomb rack units, antenna components, and electronic assemblies.

Activity has averaged 62 awards per year over the past five years (2022–2026), with a peak of 95 awards in 2024 before declining to 28 awards year-to-date in 2026. Fifty awards (combined potential value $141.9 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure. Service Contract Inventory data reflects minimal reportable service-contract activity: zero invoiced revenue across FY2022–FY2025 at the prime level, with only 0.1–0.2 FTEs recorded in FY2024–FY2025. This absence reflects the division's primary focus on goods manufacturing and product delivery rather than labor-hour services; SCI reporting does not capture the division's core business model of manufacturing and repair of electronic components and aerospace hardware.

The division competes predominantly on technical capability and established relationships rather than cost leadership or small-business posture. All recent awards carry "No Set-Aside Used" designations, reflecting full-and-open competition or sole-source awards justified by original-equipment-manufacturer data rights or prior technical performance. NAICS concentration centers on Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (451 awards), Other Electronic Component Manufacturing (267 awards), and Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance systems manufacturing (174 awards). Product Service Code concentration reflects the same pattern: Cable, Cord, and Wire Assemblies for Communication Equipment (343 awards), Miscellaneous Aircraft Accessories (230 awards), Electrical and Electronic Assemblies (124 awards), and Antennas and Waveguides (86 awards). The portfolio signals a division positioned as a specialized supplier of defense electronics, radar systems, and weapons-release equipment across Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard aviation platforms.
