F-35 Lightning II Avionics
There are three variants of the aircraft, each designed for the operational challenges of different services: the Air Forceās F-35A ā conventional takeoff and landing variant, the Marine Corpsā F-35B short takeoff and vertical landing variant and the Navyās F-35C carrier-based variant. L3Harris technology plays a critical role on each one of them and will ensure that U.S. and allied pilots continue to dominate the skies.
L3Harris has been working with F-35 industry partners from the programās inception through the aircraftās first deployment in 2015 and will continue to support it into its operational life. L3Harris provides the F-35 with cockpit communications, data processing, sophisticated avionics and electronic warfare technology, as well as clean, pneumatic carriage and release racks that support the aircraftās low observable profile. Communication, navigation and instrumentation antennas deliver situational awareness while advanced datalink protocols ensure data remains encrypted and secure. L3Harris avionics infrastructure and electronics are critical to providing more efficient, affordable and higher-performance capabilities than ever before, in keeping with the F-35ās status as the next generation standard bearer of U.S. global air power.
