L3Harris Technologies and the UAE’s EDGE Group have signed a memorandum of understanding aimed at deepening their partnership and accelerating the development of advanced defense solutions. The agreement establishes a strategic foundation for expanding L3Harris’ presence in the Middle East while supporting the UAE’s efforts to enhance its defence capabilities.
Under the MoU, both companies will work together to pursue defence opportunities across the UAE and the wider region. The partnership outlines plans for joint research and development focused on artificial intelligence and autonomous technologies, as well as the deployment of these emerging capabilities.
Christopher Kubasik, Chair and CEO, L3Harris, said: “Partnerships are a hallmark of our Trusted Disruptor strategy, and EDGE is the kind of disruptive innovator we’re seeking to collaborate with. Together, we’ll accelerate the development and delivery of the advanced solutions the UAE needs to confront emerging threats.”
Hamad Al Marar, Managing Director and CEO, EDGE Group, added: “Partnering with L3Harris will provide the groundwork for further close collaboration in critical areas supporting EDGE’s product development roadmap, particularly in domains where we are rapidly progressing. Growth through such mutually beneficial cooperation enables us to be perpetually ready to develop and deliver breakthrough solutions that meet the requirements of our global customers.”
L3Harris has provided capabilities to customers in the UAE for more than 35 years and currently maintains a corporate office in Abu Dhabi.
