  • L-3 COMMUNICATIONS HLDGS INC Profile

    L-3's good defense is its best commercial offense. L-3 Communications Holdings makes secure and specialized systems for satellite, avionics, and marine communications. The US government (primarily the Department of Defense) accounts for about 80% of the company's business, but L-3 is using acquisitions to expand its commercial offerings. Commercial products include flight recorders (black boxes), display systems, and wireless telecom gear. L-3 has added to its aircraft repair, overhaul, and technical services with the purchase of Spar Aerospace and what are now L-3 Communications Integrated Systems, L-3 Communications Vertex Aerospace, and L-3 Communications Cincinnati Electronics.
