?The AN/PRC-117G is delivering transformational communication capabilities to the Marine Corps by enabling on-the-move transmission of voice, video and data across the battlefield,? said George Helm, president, Department of Defense business, Harris RF Communications. ?Our radio systems enable highly mobile forces to stay connected and networked no matter where they are on the battlefield.
