AERIS X™ Airborne Early Warning and Control

Conformal dual-band AESA radar delivers persistent, gap-free surveillance in all directions, even during turns and complex maneuvers. L3Harris eliminates fore and aft blind spots — critical for strike package support and pulsed operations.

The Global 6500 platform operates at 41,000 feet, significantly higher than competing platforms. This maximizes radar horizon and survivability, extends coverage and increases flexibility in contested environments.

Our superior mission system solution is capable of tracking both high speed and high-altitude missile threats, while also being capable of tracking hundreds low and slow unmanned threats.

The L3Harris offering is operational now as a military off-the-shelf (MOTS) solution. No major new development, no unproven technology.

Our modular open systems architecture provides access to the System Interfaces, which are documented in interface control documents, configuration files, and software support tools; retain sovereign control for upgrades and future integration.

Designed for seamless integration with F-35 and other assets, supporting Link 16, Link 22, JREAP-C, SATURN and advanced tactical data links.

Enables distributed operations, surge capacity, and flexible crew augmentation for distributed scalable and resilient command and control.

Maximized allied partner content. Our solution delivers jobs, technology, and long-term value to allies and partners.

The conformal sensor design preserves the aircraft’s outer mold line, enabling seamless integration of new sensors as they become available without extensive aircraft modifications or recertification requirements. This approach reduces risk, enables rapid adaptation of the mission suite to counter emergent threats, and can save operators hundreds of millions of dollars over the platform’s lifecycle.
