Harris Corporation (NYSE: HRS) has been awarded an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a potential value of $397 million to continue providing Falcon III handheld tactical radio systems to the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD).

The two-year contract, awarded by Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command on behalf of the U.S. DoD, enables U.S. forces to acquire radios from the Falcon III AN/PRC-152 handheld radio family, along with accessories and training. The contract includes two additional 1-year options that if exercised could increase the potential value to $712 million.
