L3Harris Technologies has delivered its second operational Bombardier Global 6500 aircraft missionized with intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities. The aircraft has greater survivability and targeting line of sight along with more capacity for payloads and standoff ranges to support critical missions across the globe.
In February 2025, L3Harris delivered the first missionized Bombardier Global 6500 aircraft. The latest delivery establishes the only pair of fully operational platforms equipped with advanced radar, electronic and communications intelligence capabilities.
“Given the operational need for affordable yet capable ISR aircraft, we are seeing an uptick in demand to take a commercial platform like a business jet and add mission equipment and survivability features,” said Jason Lambert, President, ISR, L3Harris. “This model accelerates the timeline for aircraft delivery and mission readiness.”
