L3Harris Technologies has launched production of its latest missile attack warning and tracking system, marking an important milestone in the development of a new generation of multi-layered defense architecture in the United States. This second stage system of the United States Space Development Agency (SDA) is designed to detect, track and target modern missile threats in real time, including ballistic and hypersonic missiles.
The project is part of a large-scale program to create a space constellation of satellites that will provide global, continuous monitoring of missile launches and the movement of threats. In particular, the system will use infrared sensors and laser communication lines to quickly exchange information with ground or aerial platforms, allowing effective coordination of enemy interception. The launch of satellites and the start of equipment production is planned for 2025, which brings the deployment of this technology as a key element of national missile defense.
L3Harris works in collaboration with other contractors such as Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman under multibillion-dollar Space Development Agency contracts. These programs are aimed at providing early warning and high-precision surveillance of hypersonic and ballistic missiles, which is a response to the growing modern security threats.
Thus, the launch of the new L3Harris system takes a significant step towards the implementation of the advanced space defense architecture of the United States, capable of detecting and tracking complex missile threats in real time and providing more effective protection of strategic facilities.
