HUNTSVILLE, Ala.: L3Harris Technologies (NYSE: LHX) has expanded its Advanced Manufacturing Facility-South (AMF-South) in Huntsville with a $25 million investment that includes an additional 130,000 square feet of manufacturing space.

The expansion increases the company’s footprint in Huntsville to ~670,000 square feet across three local sites. The AMF-South location is able to scale rapidly by utilizing space that already has the necessary infrastructure in place.

“The additional space allows us to lean forward and surge capacity in a way that directly aligns with the Department of War’s demand for critical munition acceleration,” said Ken Bedingfield, President, Missile Solutions, L3Harris. “Huntsville’s expansion at AMF-South gives us the flexibility we need to grow quickly and continue delivering for our customers.”

The facility growth builds on the company’s sustained investments in Huntsville, including a tripling of capital spend from 2024 to 2025. Huntsville currently supports more than half of L3Harris’ solid rocket motor programs with inert component production, and output continues to increase year-over-year.

AMF-South is currently hiring for a variety of key positions, including Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, Project Engineering, Quality and skilled trades such as Machinists and Composite Technicians.
