L3Harris Red Wolf + SKY RAIDER II INTERNATIONAL: Unmatched Flexibility for Kinetic Strike, EW, ISR and Support Missions

L3Harris recently showcased the ability to integrate its Red Wolf™ launched effects vehicle on its SKY RAIDER II INTERNATIONAL™ aircraft, highlighting both platforms’ modularity and ease of integration for evolving mission requirements including kinetic strike, electronic warfare (EW), and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR). 

“Our customers demand a lean, agile aircraft that can fly, take off and land anywhere, anytime, outfitted with a wide range of payloads,” said Jason Lambert, President, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance, Space and Mission Systems, L3Harris. “Bringing together Red Wolf and SKY RAIDER II INTERNATIONAL demonstrates the rapid reconfiguration and customization of key L3Harris capabilities.”

SKY RAIDER II INTERNATIONAL, based on the Air Tractor 802, delivers close air support, precision strike and armed ISR while connecting with any joint force network around the world in real time. It offers a small footprint, low cost per flying hour and unmatched flexibility for U.S. and international forces’ current and future missions.

Red Wolf is a multi-domain kinetic vehicle for long-range precision strikes. Like its Green Wolf EW counterpart, it offers extended loiter capability and standoff range engagement.

This integration concept underscores the engineering prowess across the company to meet customer demands to defeat adversary threats with adaptable, open standards-based solutions.
