The AN/PRC-152 Multiband Handheld Radio, is a portable, compact, tactical software-defined combat-net radio manufactured by Harris Corporation.[1] It is compliant without waivers to the Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS) Software Communications Architecture (SCA).[2][3] It has received NSA certification for the transmission of Top Secret data. In accordance with the Joint Electronics Type Designation System (JETDS), the "AN/PRC-152" designation represents the 152nd design of an Army-Navy electronic device for portable two-way communications radio. The JETDS system also now is used to name all Department of Defense electronic systems. UsersThe AN/PRC-152 radio began production in 2005.[4] Since then, over 100,000 have been provided to the US military.[5] The PRC-152 has been notably used by Prince Harry during his service with the British Army, then a 23-year-old second lieutenant in the Household Cavalry. He was responsible for providing cover for troops on the frontline as a Forward Air Controller (FAC) employing the AN/PRC-152 and other systems.[6] Ukraine, as part of western military aid, began receiving Harris radios during the war in Donbas. This included the Harris RF-310M-HH, an export version of the PRC-152 without NSA Type 1 encryption.[7] ![]() SpecificationsGeneral
