 PROFILE
L-3's good defense is its best commercial offense. L-3 Communications makes secure and specialized systems for satellite, avionics, and marine communications. The US Department of Defense accounts for 63% of the company's business. However, L-3 is using acquisitions to expand its offerings to commercial customers in markets such as transportation and communications. L-3 provides flight recorders (black boxes), display systems, and wireless telecom gear for commercial customers. Frank Lanza, who founded the acquisitive company when he convinced aerospace giant Lockheed Martin to spin it off and put him in command, was also responsible for building Loral Corporation into an industry player.
