The Falcon III multiband, multimission, manpack tactical radio
offers wideband, secure networking, capable of supporting multiple
wavebands from 30 MHz up to 2 GHz, including support of commercial
L-Band SATCOM and wideband mobile ad-hoc networking. The Falcon
III manpack radio provides 20 watts of output power. it includes
embedded encryption for voice and data. Additionally, the radio
includes an embedded, military-grade GPS receiver for timing and
situational awareness.
The system supports high data throughput rates. Falcon III
incorporates the Harris Advanced Networking Wideband Waveform
(ANW2) to provide secure IP data networking to the tactical
Internet at on-air rates up to 10 megabits per second. The high
data rate capability, coupled with mobile ad-hoc networking,
automated network establishment and maintenance, and integrated IP
Security (IPSEC), provides a powerful networking solution. Because
the radios utilize the SCA operating environment, future
networking waveforms can be incorporated as they are developed and
released.
The system is designed to quickly accommodate new waveforms as
they become available to address their future requirements. The
Falcon III manpack radio is a companion to the AN/PRC-152(C)
multiband handheld and AN/VRC-110 vehicular radios, introduced in
2005. With an extended range, Software Communications Architecture
(SCA) operating environment, and significant processing power, it
will accommodate new waveforms for networking, TACSAT, and public
safety interoperability.
