Harris Corporation Exhibits First High-Performance Wideband/Narrowband Secure Personal Radio for U.S. Department of Defense

New Falcon III RF-300S, Built on Harris JTRS Technology, Delivers Voice and

      Situational Awareness to Individual Warfighters in a Lightweight

                           Military-Grade Package



    FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla., Aug. 19 /EMWNews/ -- (LandWarNet

booth #303) Harris Corporation (NYSE: HRS), an international communications

and information technology company, is exhibiting the Falcon III(R)

RF-300S, a lightweight, wearable tactical radio designed for the U.S.

Department of Defense, at the LandWarNet conference August 19-21, 2008.



    The RF-300S delivers voice and situational awareness to the individual

warfighter, and will allow the U.S. military to upgrade squad-level

communications with rugged, high-performance, software-defined,

military-grade radios with built-in GPS. The RF-300S is designed to address

the emerging requirements of the U.S. Department of Defense, such as the

Rifleman Radio program.



    The RF-300S will provide the individual warfighter with wideband data

and situational awareness in addition to narrowband voice capabilities. The

radio runs the APCO Project 25 (P25) waveform, allowing secure

interoperability with currently deployed squad radios. It also operates the

Soldier Radio Waveform (SRW) and the Harris Advanced Wideband Networking

Waveform (ANW2) for networked tactical communications. The operating

environment in the RF-300S is based on the Software Communications

Architecture delivered in Harris Corporation's widely fielded Falcon III

line of tactical radios.



    The RF-300S is secured using the Suite-B algorithms, including AES for

encryption, allowing interoperability with other Suite-B enabled

communication products. Properly implemented Suite-B algorithms can provide

protection of information up through the classified SECRET level in a

non-cryptographic controlled item (CCI) environment, eliminating the need

for every soldier to have a security clearance. Harris plans to submit the

RF-300S to the U.S. Government for evaluation for use in non-CCI, Secret

and below applications.



    "The Falcon III RF-300S will deliver new levels of voice and

high-bandwidth data connectivity to the entire squad," said George Helm,

vice president and general manager, U.S. Government Products, Harris RF

Communications. "By combining P25 and the Soldier Radio Waveform, the radio

offers great operational flexibility, ease of migration as standards

change, and interoperability. Interoperability with currently deployed

narrowband radios is critical to allow a smooth transition to a networked

force until adequate spectrum is available to support a large number of

users."



    The radio covers a frequency range of 225 MHz to 470 MHz. It

incorporates a Global Positioning System receiver for easy-to-use position

tracking and messaging services, while reducing the load carried by the

soldier.



    Harris RF Communications Division is the leading supplier of secure

voice and data communications products, systems and networks to military,

government and commercial organizations worldwide.
