L3Harris provides advanced control and simulation solutions for warship automation systems across the Albion-class landing platform docks and Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carriers. More systems are being developed and delivered for Type 26 and Type 31 frigates. 

Redefining the Way the World Works at Sea

From advanced autonomy for unmanned maritime vehicles to information warfare mission systems and networks, our team is ready to help. Whether defense or civilian, L3Harris has the technologies you need at sea.

The L3Harris team in Bristol is proud to support our maritime partners in Australia through a new contract aimed at optimising the Hunter-class frigates for anti-submarine warfare.

The IPMS, developed in Bristol, was initially designed for the United Kingdom's Type 26 frigates as part of the Global Combat Ship program. It will now be adapted to fulfil the specific requirements of the Royal Australian Navy.

We have additional Maritime UK sites in Burgess Hill, Barrow-In-Furness and Portchester. Together, we are powering the Royal Navy’s adoption of autonomous surface vehicle technology as well as delivering autonomous capability to UK ports, harbours and offshore energy service providers.
