L3Harris wins two Foreign Military Sales orders for Falcon communication systems supporting Germany’s land forces digitalization

L3Harris Technologies (NYSE: LHX) said it has received two Foreign Military Sales (FMS) orders for Falcon® communication systems intended to support German forces. The company made the announcement on June 24, 2026, in a news item distributed by Yahoo Finance.

According to the report, the orders are tied to Germany’s Digitalization – Land Based Operations (D-LBO), a modernization effort focused on improving how land units plan, communicate, and operate in the field. FMS is the U.S. government’s government-to-government process that allows allied countries to buy U.S.-origin defense equipment and services, typically through a U.S. government-managed procurement and contracting framework.

The company said the second part of the awards is linked to special operations, though the published summary in the report cuts off before providing the full program name or further detail. L3Harris did not specify, in the information available here, the contract values, delivery timelines, or the number of Falcon systems covered by each order.

Falcon® is described in the report as the communication system that will be provided under the orders. In practical terms, communications systems are central to military digitalization initiatives because they connect commanders and units, support data exchange, and help enable coordinated operations across platforms. For vendors like L3Harris, these systems can also serve as part of a broader portfolio that supports upgrades rather than one-time purchases.

The awards arrive as European defense customers continue to emphasize interoperability, secure communications, and digital command-and-control capabilities. Germany’s D-LBO program, in particular, indicates a push toward integrating technology into land-based operations, an area where defense suppliers often compete on configuration flexibility, integration with existing communications architectures, and sustainment support.

What remains unclear from the published summary is the scope of the work beyond the systems themselves. The report does not state whether the orders include related services such as installation, training, engineering support, or follow-on sustainment. It also does not disclose whether L3Harris will deliver complete systems, components, or software-enabled capabilities as part of Falcon® under these FMS orders.

Investors and defense-watchers will likely focus next on whether L3Harris provides contract value and schedule details in subsequent filings or earnings materials, and whether the company indicates any follow-on purchasing indicates tied to D-LBO or other German modernization programs. Additional disclosures could also clarify how the Falcon® deliveries fit into Germany’s broader communications modernization roadmap.
