L3Harris Technologies has reorganised its operations from four business segments into three, a change the company says is intended to better align its portfolio with future defence requirements, according to the company.
Under the new structure, L3Harris will operate three segments. Space & Mission Systems will be led by Sam Mehta, Communications & Spectrum Dominance by Jon Rambeau, and Missile Solutions by Ken Bedingfield. In addition to leading Missile Solutions, Bedingfield will continue in his role as senior vice president and chief financial officer. The company also announced the appointment of Ed Zoiss as vice president for engineering and innovation.
According to L3Harris, the Space & Mission Systems segment will bring together satellite and payload activities, including missile warning and defence capabilities, alongside maritime, air special missions, and other defence and civil government programmes. Communications & Spectrum Dominance will consolidate the company’s resilient communications and electronic warfare activities, while Missile Solutions will combine propulsion, hypersonics and other advanced missile-related technologies.
Commenting on the reorganisation, L3Harris Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Christopher Kubasik said: “This change thoughtfully organises common business models, technical capabilities and investment priorities.” He added: “Enabling the Arsenal of Freedom requires action, and we’re now best poised to deliver the speed, technology and commerciality required by our most important customer – the warfighter.”
The company stated that further details on the reorganisation, including the realignment of its 2025 financial results into the new three-segment structure, will be provided during its earnings call scheduled for 29 January. L3Harris has not indicated whether the changes will result in workforce adjustments or alterations to existing programmes.
