AN/PRC-150(C) HF Manpack Radio
Harris
Harris AN/PRC-150(C) HF manpack radio
provides secure, long-range voice and data. It also supports secure
Type-1 interoperability with the Marine Corps' AN/PRC-117F(C) multi-band
multi-mission radios (MBMMR). It uses embedded information-security
features to enable secure, ground-to- ground and ground-to-air
communications in all HF modes and in fixed-frequency modes with
SINCGARS radios. The system dual mode system covers the full HF band and
part of the VHF band, from 1.6 to 60 MHz. The AN/VRC-104(V)3 vehicular
product is a fully integrated communications system that includes the
Harris AN/PRC-150(C) tactical radio and 150 watt high-frequency power
amplifier.
On 17 August 2006
the US Marine Corps awarded Harris a $35 contract to replace their
legacy MRC-138s and GRC-193s high-frequency tactical radio systems with
new AN/PRC-150(C) manpack and AN/VRC-104(V)3 vehicular systems to be
supplied by Harris, under a $35 million contract. The new sets will
modernize Marine Corps active duty and reserve components. |
