Harris Corporation Successfully Completes Qualification Testing of U.S. Navy
Multiband SATCOM Terminal
Terminals to Provide 10 Times the Bandwidth Currently Available Onboard Ships

MELBOURNE, Fla., Nov. 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Harris Corporation (NYSE:
HRS) has successfully completed system qualification testing of a satellite
terminal that will provide U.S. Navy personnel onboard frigates, cruisers and
destroyers with access to the Internet, video and other broadband services.
Completion of the testing moves the Commercial Broadband Satellite Program
(CBSP) Unit Level Variant (ULV) contract into the initial production phase.

Under the contract, Harris will supply up to 55 advanced, 1.3-meter satellite
communications terminals with X- and Ku-band capabilities. With 10 times the
bandwidth currently accessible onboard Navy ships, the terminals will enable
the Navy to augment military satellite communications by supporting essential
mission requirements and providing high-speed Internet access and video
communications to frigates and other Unit Level classified ships.

Harris was awarded the five-year, potential $77 million, Indefinite
Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract in 2008, and delivered the first
terminal for qualification testing in just six months. The CBSP program is a
Rapid Deployment Capability acquisition designed to reduce the time required
to deliver critical/emerging warfighting capabilities.

"Completion of qualification testing is a key milestone for this program, as
these terminals will significantly enhance the Navy's ability to provide
high-data-rate satellite communications to shipboard personnel throughout the
world," said Wes Covell, president, Harris Defense Programs. "This represents
a new Navy SATCOM capability that will provide the most advanced
communications services available to deployed personnel."

Harris Defense Programs develops, supplies, and integrates communications and
information processing products, systems, and networks for a diverse base of
aerospace, terrestrial and maritime applications supporting U.S. Department of
Defense missions. Harris is committed to delivering leading-edge technologies
that support the military's ongoing transformation to network-centric
communications.
