The contracts, received in the company's third 2017 quarter, carry a combined value of $90 million, the company said.

"Harris is committed to supporting this nation's readiness effort with solutions that deliver expanded and reliable communications for the modern battlefield," said Chris Young, president of Harris Communication Systems.

"The combination of the two radio systems will increase readiness and allow for full interoperability with U.S., NATO and coalition forces," Harris said.

Information on the exact number of radio systems ordered and their delivery schedule were not disclosed.
