Harris Corporation has received National Security Agency Type-1 certification for its AN/PRC-163 multi-channel handheld networking radio, the company announced on 6 November.
The Harris AN/PRC-163 combines communications and ISR capabilities to address mission needs in a small, portable form factor. This certification allows the radio to transmit secure voice and data communications up to Top Secret level on both channels for VHF/UHF line of sight, SATCOM and mobile ad-hoc networking applications.
The software-defined radio can be easily upgraded and includes a mission module expansion slot that allows for changes based on evolving mission needs. It can also communicate over legacy applications, operate in harsh environments and meets rigorous requirements for small, lightweight, multiband, multifunction and multi-mission tactical radios.
