Estimated reading time: 1 minute

L3Harris Technologies debuted a pack of launched effects vehicles, demonstrating the company’s ability to respond to the U.S. Department of Defense’s urgent need for advanced, capable and affordable munitions it can employ across services and domains.

Red Wolf™ and Green Wolf™ are the first in L3Harris’ expanding family of multi-role vehicles that can  easily integrate and launch from air, ground or maritime-based platforms. Red Wolf is a kinetic platform for long-range precision strikes, while Green Wolf is an electronic warfare platform equipped with electronic attack and detect, identify, locate and report capabilities. Both vehicles are flexible, modular and feature advanced software for in-flight collaboration and re-targeting. They also support swarming capability of autonomous aircraft.

“Our launched effects ‘wolf pack’ provides U.S. military branches – regardless of platform – with a significant advantage in closing long-range kill chains, defeating adversarial threats in challenging environments and protecting assets,” said Ed Zoiss, President, Space and Airborne Systems, L3Harris. “The Red Wolf and Green Wolf are lethal, modular, affordable and ready to hunt.”

L3Harris designed, developed and built the vehicles over the past five years and completed more than 40 flights with them. The platforms can be recoverable, providing flexibility to develop and integrate different payloads. The company will build dozens of systems as part of low-rate initial production by the end of 2025, supported by infrastructure expansions and automation enhancements.
