L3Harris Names Sam Mehta To Lead Space & Mission Systems, Communications & Spectrum Dominance

L3Harris Technologies has updated the leadership structure supporting its three reportable segments, highlighting a continued emphasis on execution, operational performance and customer missions.

Effective immediately, Sam Mehta has been appointed President with responsibility for both the Space & Mission Systems and Communications & Spectrum Dominance segments. The company said it expects to continue reporting separate financial results for each of its three segments, in line with its previously announced structure. Mehta and Ken Bedingfield, who leads the Missile Solutions segment, will continue to report directly to Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Christopher Kubasik.

"Sam is a proven operator with a strong track record of delivering results," Kubasik said. "I am confident he will drive further synergies across our business and operations. We remain focused on our highest priority – providing innovative technology at the speed and scale required to rebuild today's industrial base and preserve peace through strength."

Mehta brings 25 years of leadership experience across the aerospace and defence sector. He previously ran L3Harris' Communication Systems segment and, earlier this year, assumed responsibility for Space & Mission Systems.

Jon Rambeau, formerly President of Communications & Spectrum Dominance, has left the company to pursue external opportunities. "Jon has made important contributions to L3Harris, and we wish him well," Kubasik added.
