Harris also secured orders worth $20m from the US Army Communications-Electronics Command (CECOM) to modernise defence force communications for several Middle East and North African nations.

Received under the foreign military sales (FMS) programme, the orders require Harris to supply single-channel ground and airborne radio system (SINCGARS) vehicular radios.

The radios will deliver real-time mobile command and control of armoured assets over secure voice and data communication links.

With nearly 22,000 employees, Harris provides communication, space and intelligence, and electronic systems, as well as critical networks.

The company recently sold its aero-structures business to Albany International in a $210m deal.
