L3Harris Demonstrates Electronic Warfare Operations During Valiant Shield 2024 Exercise

MELBOURNE, Fla., Aug. 1, 2024 - L3Harris Technologies (NYSE:LHX) successfully demonstrated its new electronic warfare (EW) capability in the U.S. Indo Pacific Command's (USINDOPACOM) Valiant Shield 2024, a biennial field training exercise focused on integrating interoperability in a multi-domain environment. The company's new capability - Distributed Spectrum Collaboration and Operations (DiSCO™) - is a cloud-connected Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations architecture that will enable military forces to counter complex threats.

During the exercise, DiSCO successfully shared real-time radio frequency signal data between Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii, and multiple EW payloads operating in Hawaii and in San Diego, California. Small form-factor payloads operated on two Seasats' autonomous surface vehicles along with satellite communications links at both locations. L3Harris operators also received real-time information from sensors through the cloud and initiated rapid reprogramming actions over-the-air from Hawaii and a remote company terminal in Clifton, New Jersey.

"DISCO helps the warfighter to identify new threats through the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning tools to rapidly reprogram EW systems at the edge and make more informed, faster decisions across a network of distributed platforms," said Ed Zoiss, President, Space and Airborne Systems, L3Harris. "Ultimately, our technology will ensure tactical forces have the tools they need for spectrum superiority."

This capability connects sensors and shooters to computer resources and cross-domain data sources through a combination of edge nodes and cloud applications, fusing and analyzing live mission data to enable rapid reprogramming, electromagnetic battle management and synchronization of non-kinetic effects across all domains.
