L3Harris maritime facility opening in Rhode Island

Overview

L3Harris Technologies has opened a new 50,000-square-foot maritime production facility at ProvPort in Providence, Rhode Island. The $6 million investment is dedicated to the design, production, and delivery of advanced undersea training systems for the U.S. Navy and allied forces.

The facility aims to meet increasing demand for undersea readiness and strengthen the regional undersea warfare industrial base. Nino DiCosmo, president of Maritime, Space and Mission Systems at L3Harris, noted that the location offers a strategic advantage through access to a highly skilled maritime workforce.

Local officials, including Senator Jack Reed, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, and Representative Gabe Amo, highlighted that the expansion supports Rhode Island’s ‘Blue Economy,’ a sector valued at over $5.2 billion that supports more than 36,500 jobs across the state.
