Every EO/IR system begins with a simple goal: provide customers with the exact imaging capability they need to accomplish their mission. Achieving that goal requires close collaboration between engineering, manufacturing and operations teams, ensuring each system is designed for performance, reliability and long-term sustainment from day one.
"Our approach is centered on mission outcomes," said Donald Cummings, General Manager, WESCAM, L3Harris. "We design and build every system with precision, resiliency, performance and scalability in mind, allowing us to deliver highly capable solutions while maintaining the flexibility to meet evolving customer requirements."

At L3Harris, advanced manufacturing techniques and production processes enable teams to build sophisticated systems with exceptional consistency and quality. Highly skilled engineers and technicians work together throughout the production lifecycle, applying rigorous standards at every stage, from component integration and calibration to testing and final acceptance.
The result is a manufacturing environment designed for efficiency and results. Streamlined workflows, digital engineering practices and continuous process improvements help accelerate delivery timelines while maintaining the exacting quality standards customers expect from WESCAM MX-Series EO/IR systems.
What truly distinguishes this manufacturing approach is its ability to deliver solutions tailored to specific mission needs. Modular system architecture enables customers to configure capabilities that align with operational requirements while providing pathways for future growth and technology insertion. This flexibility helps operators adapt to emerging demands without replacing entire systems.
"Manufacturing excellence is about more than building products," said Tony Calderon, President, Targeting & Sensor Systems, L3Harris. "It's about creating repeatable, high-quality processes that allow us to deliver reliable systems at scale while ensuring every system meets rigorous and demanding performance standards.”

That commitment extends beyond the production floor. From design and engineering through manufacturing, fielding, sustainment and customer support, every WESCAM MX-Series system benefits from the expertise of professionals dedicated to supporting mission success. This includes those who have personally operated these systems in the field during global operations, resulting in a truly combat- and mission-informed solution.
As operational requirements continue to evolve, L3Harris remains focused on advancing manufacturing capabilities, investing in innovation and empowering the skilled workforce behind every solution. The result is a proven foundation of engineering and manufacturing excellence that delivers trusted performance wherever the mission takes our EO/IR customers.
