L3Harris Technologies (NYSE:LHX) has named international
aerospace and defense veteran Daniel Zoot as the new Corporate Vice
President of L3Harris Technologies Japan. Zoot will establish
L3Harris’ first corporate office in Tokyo to help customers address
their toughest technology and national security challenges.
Zoot brings nearly three decades of A&D experience to the
new position – including more than 20 years in defense and
space-based leadership roles in Japan. He most recently served as
Director, Multi-Domain Effectors for Raytheon Missiles and Defense
in Japan. Prior to that he held roles with increasing
responsibility in program management, engineering and business
development with Raytheon Technologies, Loral, and the U.S.
Navy.
“Establishing our Japan headquarters expands our ability to
support the security needs of our allies and the safety of their
warfighters,” said Charles R. “CR” Davis, Vice President, L3Harris
International. “I look forward to working with Dan to establish
strong partnerships and deliver end-to-end solutions that address
our customers’ mission-critical needs.”
L3Harris has provided advanced technology solutions to
government and commercial customers across Japan for years. Among
the largest and most advanced markets for U.S. defense technology
in the Asia Pacific region, Japan is strengthening its capabilities
in new domains – space, cyberspace and the electromagnetic spectrum
– and traditional domains including land, maritime and air.
L3Harris has targeted investment in those domains, and formalizing
the company’s presence in Japan reflects L3Harris’ commitment to
expand its global focus and support to key U.S. allies.
The company has been a major supplier of defense equipment and
services to Japan’s Ministry of Defense. With varied programs and
systems already in place within Japan, L3Harris’ investments have
helped grow the local aerospace sector, creating jobs and driving
innovation – creating a path to support development of Japan’s
multi-domain defense capabilities. More information about L3Harris
