US Navy Adds $876M to L3Harris Next Generation Jammer for EA-18G Electronic Attack Jet
The US Navy awarded L3Harris Technologies an approximately $876.4 million contract modification for engineering and manufacturing development of the Next Generation Jammer Low Band system for the EA-18G Growler. The modification supports nonrecurring engineering, electronic-attack demonstration pods, tooling, cybersecurity, software development, testing and associated logistics required to mature the airborne jamming capability. The program is a cooperative effort involving the United States and Australia, with work expected to continue into fiscal 2031. This is a development-stage award for the low-band electronic-warfare suite rather than a purchase of a specified quantity of operational jammer pods.
