  Rochester, N.Y. January 26, 2021 — The Australian Defence Force has awarded L3Harris Technologies (NYSE: LHX) contracts totaling $233 million (USD) to deliver secure communications and advanced night vision goggle technology to support the country's key modernization initiatives. L3Harris was awarded a three-year, $115 million follow-on FFP contract under the Direct Commercial Sale (DCS) arrangements for the Australian Defence Force's Delphic - Cryptographic Modernization program. L3Harris will deliver tactical radios, waveforms and ancillaries that support emerging cryptographic modernization standards. The company also was awarded a $118 million contract to provide advanced night vision goggle technology to enhance Army soldiers' ability to locate and engage threats – improving their situational awareness, mobility and safety. The award follows L3Harris' successful delivery of night vision technology for Tranche 1 of the Land 53 program in 2020. L3Harris will deliver its Fused Night Vision System (FNVS), which incorporates the latest in night vision capabilities – fusing image intensification technology with thermal imagery to provide soldiers with enhanced situational awareness, targeting and identification capability in all battlefield conditions and light levels.
