ROCHESTER, NY, April 7, 2008 — Harris Corporation (NYSE:HRS), an international communications and information technology company, has been awarded a $96.7 million contract to continue upgrading U.S. Marine Corps tactical radio communications with multiband, multimission JTRS-approved Falcon III^® handheld and vehicular radio systems.

Under this contract, Harris will provide the Marines with its multiband, multimission Falcon III AN/PRC-152(C), the most widely deployed JTRS-approved handheld radio, with more than 35,000 fielded worldwide. In addition to SINCGARS capability, the AN/PRC-152(C) offers ultra-high frequency (UHF) ground-to-ground line-of-sight communications, close-air support, tactical satellite communications and programmable encryption.
