Its innovative Live-Virtual-Constructive (LVC) simulation environment brings together space, air, surface and subsurface entities and applies them collaboratively to exercises. This technology enables users to evaluate mission strategy and tactics in an almost limitless variety of complex scenarios.
Live-VIRTUAL-constructive
L3Harris Military Training was recently awarded the U.S. Air Force Simulator Common Architecture Requirements and Standards (SCARS) program. This critical program will directly enable the USAF to meet the objective end-state of the Operational Training Infrastructure 2035 Flight Plan. This effort spans the definition, design, delivery, deployment and sustainment of a common simulator architecture across an Air Force training portfolio of over 50 different weapon system platforms and 2,400 training devices at over 300 sites.
SCARS
The U.S. Army’s Flight School XXI (FSXXI) is recognized as the largest helicopter simulation training program in the world. Each year FSXXI trains 1,200 new student pilots with no previous flight experience to become combat mission aviators. In addition, FSXXI trains 1,600 rated Army aviators to operate new aircraft platforms annually. The U.S. Army spends only 8 percent of its annual training budget to train 39 percent of its annual training requirements via FSXXI.

Prime Mission System Integrator in Space: Laying the groundwork for more than a decade
L3Harris partners with our customers to provide systems that fill key mission gaps. That partnership enables efficient and affordable programs. We use proven commercial standards, upscreened commercial and military components, and commercial ground and software to meet our customers’ schedule and cost requirements.
L3Harris has more than 300 payloads on orbit and has recently launched responsive satellites that provide critical information to the warfighter.
L3Harris has leveraged decades of delivering critical space components and payloads for government and commercial customers to now pivot into a Mission Prime role. In this role, we deliver responsive end-to-end integrated space and ground systems that put actionable intelligence directly to the warfighting edge – on tactically-relevant timelines.
There is no spacepower without the freedom to move within the electromagnetic spectrum and cyberspace
While spectrum is key for all warfighting domains, spectrum superiority is a must for achieving overmatch in space
Spectrum enables space domain operators to perform critical functions needed for warfighting: find, fix, track, target, engage and assess threats
DOD’s space strategy solidifies the important role space is playing in all-domain warfare
L3Harris capabilities help knit the pieces together – to include ensuring space operators are able to train like they fight
L3Harris is the prime mission integrator for the country’s space domain awareness program
MOSSAIC replaces an earlier system engineering and sustainment integration contract L3Harris and its predecessor companies have held since 2002
We build, upgrade and sustain the systems integral to the mission: - Search, discover, track and monitor objects in space - Task sensors that provide operators flexibility to decide how to employ weapons systems
Space domain awareness demands promoting standards and norms of behavior
More than 54,000 new satellites in orbit over the next decade (according to The Aerospace Corporation). The military is tracking 20,000 objects and has catalogued more than 40,000.
Watching the behavior of those objects is critical to predicting attacks on or from space so as to apply effects.
Supporting space ecosystem from all domains to deliver spacepower
Our differentiators focus on speed to on-orbit capability, persistent end-to-end solutions, and rapidly adaptable solutions for changing mission needs. L3Harris is a leader in reconfigurable payloads, with more than 200 on orbit, to quickly adapt to the ever-changing adversary threats and mission needs.
These initiatives have allowed us to accelerate our small satellite enterprise into the responsive, mission prime role for several new systems – not just developing payloads, but end-to-end systems all the way to launch. Growing classified budgets have also fueled a number of pathfinder missions.
As a newly merged company, we submitted several synergy proposals to customers and were down-selected for early stage studies in our space business: three classified; and an OPIR study contract. Those would not have happened without the combined strength of L3 and Harris. The L3Harris small satellite position was also greatly enhanced by the merger with L3 SSG that has a strong small satellite market position.
We’re now an end-to-end provider and prime system integrator for responsive satellites for national and DoD customers. We’ve provided systems as small as 6U, and as large as ESPA-class – and are currently in the early stages of development on systems well beyond those sizes.
We’ve delivered hundreds of critical sensors and payloads to meet our nation’s biggest challenges.
We successfully launched and operated our own smallsat as a demonstration project – built on IRAD.
L3Harris is known for providing high performance optical systems, large unfurlable antennas, and exquisite sensors and payloads. Innovations developed at L3Harris have allowed us to leverage that heritage while creating responsive, affordable end to end solutions on rapid timelines. Our most recent satellite delivery went from concept to delivery on orbit in less than 30 months.
