L3Harris to supply C4I suites for Bushmaster vehicles supporting New Zealand Defence Force
What happened
L3Harris Technologies was contracted to deliver an advanced command and control suite for Army Bushmaster vehicles, which will enable encrypted communications. This upgrade is part of the LAND 4111 Phase 2 program and will equip over 80 command and troop carrier variant vehicles. Installation will occur over the next three years at L3Harris’s Indo-Pacific Regional Support Centre in Pinkenba, Queensland.
Why it matters
The contract involves L3Harris Technologies providing a complete design-through-installation C4I solution for the vehicles. This supports the operational needs of the New Zealand Defence Force. L3Harris Technologies also opened its regional support center to support both the Australian Defence Force and the New Zealand Defence Force.
