Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS | NOTE A — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Basis of Presentation The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) include the accounts of L3Harris Technologies, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. As used in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (these “Notes”), the terms “L3Harris,” “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to L3Harris Technologies, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. Intracompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) have been prepared by L3Harris in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, such interim financial statements do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and equity in conformity with GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, such interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and equity for the periods presented therein. The results for the quarter and three quarters ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year or any subsequent period. The balance sheet at December 31, 2021 has been derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. We provide complete, audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which includes information and footnotes required by the rules and regulations of the SEC. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”) should be read in conjunction with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (our “Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K”). Segment reorganization and change in accounting policy: We implemented a new organizational structure effective January 1, 2022, resulting in changes to our operating segments, which are also our reportable segments and are referred to as our business segments. The new structure streamlined our business segments from four to three business segments. Our former Aviation Systems segment was eliminated as a business segment. We updated our business segment reporting and accounting policies for pension and other postretirement benefits plan (“OPEB”) income or expense to better align our presentation of business segment information with our industry peers. Our business segment operating results include pension and OPEB cost under U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards (“CAS”), as CAS pension and OPEB cost is allocable to and allowable under contracts with the U.S. Government. We no longer assign or allocate Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) pension and OPEB income or expense to our business segments. GAAP requires pension and OPEB income or expense to be recognized on a FAS basis. Therefore, we present a “FAS/CAS operating adjustment” outside of business segment results, representing the difference between the service cost component of FAS pension and OPEB income or expense and total CAS pension and OPEB cost or expense. Non-service cost components of FAS pension and OPEB income or expense are included as a component of non-operating income or expense. The historical results, discussion and presentation of our business segments as set forth in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and these Notes reflect the impact of these changes for all periods presented in order to present segment information on a comparable basis. There is no impact on our previously reported consolidated statements of income, balance sheets, statements of cash flows or statements of equity resulting from these changes. See Note S — Business Segment Information in these Notes for further information regarding our new segment structure and pension presentation effective in fiscal 2022. Supplemental Cash Flow Information Non-cash investing and financing activities during the three quarters ended October 1, 2021 included a $88 million right-of-use asset we obtained in exchange for a corresponding operating lease liability. These non-cash investing and financing activities are excluded from the “Other investing” and “Other financing” line items in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows (Unaudited). Right-of-use assets for operating leases are included in the “Operating lease right-of-use assets” line item and the corresponding operating lease liabilities are included in the “Other accrued items” and “Operating lease liabilities” line items in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (Unaudited). Non-cash investing and financing activities during the three quarters ended October 1, 2021 included a $120 million right-of-use asset we obtained in exchange for a corresponding financing lease liability. These non-cash investing and financing activities are excluded from the “Additions to property, plant and equipment” and “Net proceeds from borrowings” line items in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows (Unaudited). Right-of-use assets for finance leases are included in the “Property, plant and equipment, net” line item and the corresponding finance lease liabilities are included in the “Current portion of long-term debt, net” and “Long-term debt, net” line items in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (Unaudited). Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and these Notes and related disclosures. These estimates and assumptions are based on experience and other information available prior to issuance of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and these Notes. Materially different results can occur as circumstances change and additional information becomes known. Significant Accounting Policies Update There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies described in our Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K. |

The aggregate number of shares of our common stock issued under L3Harris SIPs, net of shares withheld for tax purposes, was 0.1 million and 0.7 million for the quarter and three quarters ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and 0.7 million and 1.2 million for the quarter and three quarters ended October 1, 2021, respectively. There were no significant restricted stock units, stock options or performance stock units awarded during the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Awards granted to participants under L3Harris SIPs during the three quarters ended September 30, 2022 consisted of 0.4 million stock options, 0.2 million performance stock units and 0.3 million restricted stock units. During fiscal 2022, the majority of the options and units were granted on February 25, 2022. The fair value as of the grant date of each stock option award was determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model and the following assumptions: expected dividend yield of 1.92%; expected volatility of 29.11%; risk-free interest rates averaging 1.86%; and expected term of 5.02 years. The fair value as of the grant date of each restricted stock unit award was based on the closing price of our common stock on the grant date. The fair value as of the grant date of each performance stock unit award was determined based on the fair value from a multifactor Monte Carlo valuation model that simulates our stock price and total shareholder return (“TSR”) relative to other companies in the S&P 500, less a discount to reflect the delay in payments of cash dividend-equivalents that are made only upon vesting. The fair value of these awards is amortized to compensation expense over the performance period if achievement of the performance measures is considered probable.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
CONTRACT ASSETS AND CONTRACT LIABILITIES | NOTE F— CONTRACT ASSETS AND CONTRACT LIABILITIES Contract assets include unbilled amounts typically resulting from revenue recognized exceeding amounts billed to customers for contracts utilizing the percentage of completion (“POC”) cost-to-cost revenue recognition method. We bill customers as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals, upon achievement of contractual milestones or upon deliveries and, in certain arrangements, the customer may withhold payment of a small portion of the contract price until contract completion. Contract liabilities include advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized, including deferred revenue associated with extended product warranties. Contract assets and liabilities are reported on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. Contract assets and liabilities in the three quarters ended September 30, 2022 were impacted primarily by the timing of contractual billing milestones. Contract assets and contract liabilities are summarized below: (In millions) September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Contract assets $ 3,135 $ 3,021 Contract liabilities, current (1,158) (1,297) Contract liabilities, non-current (1) (117) (107) Net contract assets $ 1,860 $ 1,617 _______________ (1) The non-current portion of contract liabilities is included as a component of the “Other long-term liabilities” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (Unaudited).

As discussed in more detail in Note I — Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets in these Notes, in conjunction with, and in advance of, the tests of goodwill related to our Commercial Training Solutions (“CTS”) reporting unit, we recorded an $82 million non-cash impairment charge for long-lived assets, consisting of $19 million, $56 million and $7 million of impairment charges for right of use assets, property, plant and equipment and software, respectively, which is included in the “Impairment of goodwill and other assets” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited) for the three quarters ended October 1, 2021. |

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS | NOTE I— GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS The assignment of goodwill by business segment, and changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by business segment, were as follows: (In millions) Integrated Mission Systems Space & Airborne Systems Communication Systems Aviation Systems (1) Total Balance at December 31, 2021 - As Reported $ 6,485 $ 5,202 $ 4,153 $ 2,349 $ 18,189 Reallocation of goodwill in segment reorganization (1) 1,702 647 — (2,349) — Balance at December 31, 2021 - After Reallocation 8,187 5,849 4,153 — 18,189 Impairment of goodwill (447) — (355) — (802) Currency translation adjustments (48) (77) (2) — (127) Balance at September 30, 2022 $ 7,692 $ 5,772 $ 3,796 $ — $ 17,260 _______________ (1) As a result of our new organizational structure, effective January 1, 2022, streamlining our operations from four business segments to three business segments, we reallocated goodwill previously held by our former Aviation Systems segment to our remaining business segments as of January 1, 2021, the earliest period presented in these Notes. See additional information below and “Segment Reorganization” in. Note A — Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Standards in these Notes. New Organizational Structure Effective January 1, 2022, we implemented a new organizational structure resulting in changes to our operating segments (which are also our reportable segments and are referred to as our business segments) and reporting units (which are our business segments or one level below our business segments). Implementing the new structure reduced our business segments, from four to three, and our reporting units from eleven to nine. As a result, we reassigned goodwill to our new reporting unit structure on a relative fair value basis, tested goodwill related to impacted reporting units immediately before and after the reassignment and determined that no impairment existed. Precision Engagement Business Allocation and Impairment During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we realigned our precision engagement business from our Agile Development Group (“ADG”) reporting unit to our Electro Optical reporting unit. In connection with the realignment, we transferred $325 million of goodwill associated with the precision engagement business to our Electro Optical reporting unit on a relative fair value basis. Immediately before and after the reassignment, we tested goodwill assigned to each reporting unit. As a result of these tests, concurrently with the preparation of our financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we concluded that goodwill related to our ADG reporting unit was impaired immediately before the reassignment and recorded a non-cash charge of $313 million for the impairment in the “Impairment of goodwill and other assets” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited). The impairment of goodwill was due to lower sales volume in our precision engagement business, reflecting U.S. Government spending priorities with respect to precision weapons, and higher interest rates. ADG and Electro Optical are both part of our Integrated Mission Systems segment. Broadband, Electro Optical and ADG Interim Tests Indications of potential impairment of goodwill related to our Broadband, Electro Optical and ADG reporting units were present as of September 30, 2022. Consequently, in connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we performed interim tests of each of these reporting unit’s goodwill for impairment. We determined that goodwill related to our Broadband and Electro Optical reporting units was impaired and goodwill related to our ADG reporting unit was not impaired as of September 30, 2022. Broadband and Electro Optical goodwill impairments: As a result of the interim tests of goodwill related to our Broadband and Electro Optical reporting units, we recorded $489 million of non-cash charges for the impairment of goodwill ($355 million related to Broadband and $134 million related to Electro Optical) in the “Impairment of goodwill and other assets” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited). Broadband is part of our Communications Systems segment (as noted above Electro Optical is part of our Integrated Mission Systems segment). The impairment of goodwill related to our Electro Optical reporting unit was due to persistently lower demand in the precision engagement business and an associated decrease in our outlook for the business, as well as rising interest rates. The impairment of goodwill related to our Broadband reporting unit was due to lower volume on legacy platforms, which also resulted in a decrease in our outlook for the reporting unit, and higher interest rates. CPS Business Impairment During the quarter ended April 2, 2021, we determined the criteria to be classified as held for sale were met with respect to the CPS business within our other non-reportable business segment and assigned $174 million of goodwill to the disposal group on a relative fair value basis. In connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the quarter ended April 2, 2021, we concluded that goodwill related to the CPS business was impaired and we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $62 million, which is included in the “Impairment of goodwill and other assets” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited). CTS Impairment During the quarter ended July 2, 2021, we adjusted our Aviation Systems segment reporting to better align our businesses and separated the CTS business from our Commercial Aviation Solutions reporting unit, creating a new reporting unit within the Commercial Aviation Solutions sector of our Aviation Systems segment. Immediately before and after our goodwill assignments, we completed an assessment of any potential goodwill impairment under our former and new reporting unit structure and determined that no impairment existed. To test for potential impairment of the long-lived assets, including identifiable intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, related to CTS, we compared the estimated future cash flows (on an undiscounted basis) to be generated from the use and hypothetical eventual disposition of the asset group to its carrying value and, as a result, we determined the carrying value of the CTS asset group was not recoverable. Next, we prepared an estimate of the fair value of CTS based on a combination of market-based valuation techniques, utilizing quoted market prices and comparable publicly reported transactions and projected discounted cash flows. We compared the fair value of CTS to our carrying value and recorded a $145 million non-cash charge for the impairment of CTS long-lived assets, including $63 million for impairment of identifiable intangible assets, which is included in the “Impairment of goodwill and other assets” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited) for the three quarters ended October 1, 2021. See Note H — Property, Plant and Equipment, net in these Notes for additional information. Fair Value Determinations Fair value determinations were determined based on a combination of market-based valuation techniques, utilizing quoted market prices and comparable publicly reported transactions, and projected discounted cash flows. |

CREDIT AGREEMENTS | NOTE K— CREDIT AGREEMENTS On July 29, 2022, we established a new $2 billion, 5-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility maturing in July 2027 (the “2022 Credit Facility”) pursuant to a Revolving Credit Agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of lenders. The 2022 Credit Facility replaces our prior $2 billion, 5-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility established in June 2019 (the “2019 Credit Facility”) and provides for revolving loans, swingline loans and letters of credit, with a sub-limit of $200 million for swingline loans and a sub-limit of $350 million for letters of credit, with the option to request an increase of the maximum amount of commitments up to $3 billion. At our election, borrowings in U.S. Dollars under the 2022 Credit Agreement will bear interest either based on the secured overnight funding rate or the Base Rate (as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin. We are also required to pay a quarterly unused commitment fee and letter of credit fees based on our Senior Debt Ratings. We were in compliance with all covenants under the 2022 Credit Agreement at September 30, 2022, including the covenant requiring that we not permit our ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to total capital, each as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement, to be greater than 0.65 to 1.00. At September 30, 2022, we had no borrowings outstanding under the 2022 Credit Agreement. The covenants under the 2022 Credit Agreement are substantially similar to the covenants under the 2019 Credit Facility. See Note 12: Credit Arrangements |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
EARNINGS PER SHARE | NOTE M— EARNINGS PER SHARE (Loss) income from continuing operations per common share attributable to L3Harris common shareholders (“EPS”) is computed using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines EPS for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends paid and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Under the two-class method, EPS is computed by dividing the sum of earnings distributed to L3Harris common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to L3Harris common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. (Loss) income from continuing operations per diluted common share attributable to L3Harris common shareholders (“diluted EPS”) is computed using the more dilutive of the two-class method or the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, diluted EPS is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to L3Harris common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of shares outstanding used to compute basic and diluted EPS are as follows: Quarter Ended Three Quarters Ended (In millions) September 30, 2022 October 1, 2021 September 30, 2022 October 1, 2021 Basic weighted average common shares outstanding 191.3 199.5 192.2 203.3 Impact of dilutive share-based awards — 2.1 1.8 1.9 Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding 191.3 201.6 194.0 205.2 Potential dilutive common shares primarily consist of employee stock options and restricted and performance unit awards. Diluted EPS excludes the antidilutive impact of 1.9 million and 0.3 million weighted average share-based awards outstanding for the quarter and three quarters ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and 1.1 million weighted average share-based awards outstanding for the three quarters ended October 1, 2021. The anti-dilutive impact of weighted average share-based awards outstanding for the quarter ended October 1, 2021 was immaterial. |

INCOME TAXES | NOTE N— INCOME TAXES Our effective tax rate (income taxes as a percentage of (loss) income from continuing operations before income taxes) was 6.2% on the loss from continuing operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 compared with 18.3% on the income from continuing operations for the quarter ended October 1, 2021. For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, our effective tax rate benefited from the favorable impacts of Research and Development (“R&D”) credits, incremental foreign-derived intangible income (“FDII”) and the release of a valuation allowance in a foreign jurisdiction resulting from an internal restructuring, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of non-deductible goodwill impairments. For the quarter ended October 1, 2021, our effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted by non-deductible goodwill from completed business divestitures and the unfavorable impact of valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions, partially offset by the favorable impact of R&D credits, favorable adjustments upon finalization of our Federal tax return, the favorable impact of excess tax benefits related to equity-based compensation and the favorable resolution of specific audit uncertainties. Our effective tax rate was 13.0% for the three quarters ended September 30, 2022 compared with 19.8% for the three quarters ended October 1, 2021. Our effective tax rate for the three quarters ended September 30, 2022 was favorably impacted by a reduction in the deferred tax liabilities on the outside basis of certain foreign subsidiaries due to an internal restructuring, the favorable impact of excess tax benefits related to equity-based compensation and the items described above for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Our effective tax rate for the three quarters ended October 1, 2021 were impacted by the items described above for the quarter ended October 1, 2021. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | NOTE O— FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or the price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal market or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Entities are required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in measuring fair value, and to utilize a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows: • Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means. • Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities, and reflect our own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed using the best information available in the circumstances. In certain instances, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices obtained from external pricing services. In obtaining such data from the external pricing services, we have evaluated the methodologies used to develop the estimate of fair value in order to assess whether such valuations are representative of fair value, including net asset value (“NAV”). Additionally, in certain circumstances, the NAV reported by an asset manager may be adjusted when sufficient evidence indicates NAV is not representative of fair value. The following table presents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021: September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 (In millions) Total Level 1 Total Level 1 Assets Deferred compensation plan assets (1) Equity and fixed income securities $ 59 $ 59 $ 77 $ 77 Investments measured at NAV: Corporate-owned life insurance 32 35 Total fair value of deferred compensation plan assets $ 91 $ 112 Liabilities Deferred compensation plan liabilities (2) Equity securities and mutual funds $ 7 $ 7 $ 6 $ 6 Investments measured at NAV: Common/collective trusts and guaranteed investment contracts 164 177 Total fair value of deferred compensation plan liabilities $ 171 $ 183 _______________ (1) Represents diversified assets held in a rabbi trust associated with our non-qualified deferred compensation plans, which we include in the “Other current assets” and “Other non-current assets” line items in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (Unaudited), and which are measured at fair value. (2) Primarily represents obligations to pay benefits under certain non-qualified deferred compensation plans, which we include in the “Compensation and benefits” and “Other long-term liabilities” line items in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (Unaudited). Under these plans, participants designate investment options (including stock and fixed-income funds), which serve as the basis for measurement of the notional value of their accounts. The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our significant financial instruments that were not measured at fair value (carrying amounts of other financial instruments not listed in the table below approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of those items): September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 (In millions) Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Long-term debt (including current portion) (1) $ 7,030 $ 6,494 $ 7,059 $ 7,701 _______________ (1) The fair value was estimated using a market approach based on quoted market prices for our debt traded in the secondary market. If our long-term debt in our balance sheet was measured at fair value, it would be categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES | NOTE P— DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES In the normal course of business, we are exposed to global market risks, including the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We use derivative instruments to manage our exposure to such risks and formally document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking hedge transactions. We also may enter into derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges and do not qualify for hedge accounting. We recognize all derivatives in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (Unaudited) at fair value. We do not hold or issue derivatives for speculative trading purposes. Exchange Rate Risk — Cash Flow Hedges To manage our exposure to currency risk and market fluctuation risk associated with anticipated cash flows that are probable of occurring in the future, we implement cash flow hedges. More specifically, we use foreign currency forward contracts and options to hedge off-balance sheet future foreign currency commitments, including purchase commitments to suppliers, future committed sales to customers and intersegment transactions. These derivatives are used to hedge currency exposures from cash flows anticipated across our business segments. We also hedge U.S. Dollar payments to suppliers to maintain our anticipated profit margins in our international operations. These derivatives have only nominal intrinsic value at the time of purchase and have a high degree of correlation to the anticipated cash flows they are designated to hedge. Hedge effectiveness is determined by the correlation of the anticipated cash flows from the hedging instruments and the anticipated cash flows from the future foreign currency commitments through the maturity dates of the derivatives used to hedge these cash flows. These financial instruments are marked-to-market using forward prices and fair value quotes with the offset to other comprehensive (loss) income. Gains and losses in AOCI are reclassified to earnings when the related hedged item is recognized in earnings. The cash flow impact of our derivatives is included in the same category in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows (Unaudited) as the cash flows of the related hedged items. Notional amounts are used to measure the volume of foreign currency forward contracts and do not represent exposure to foreign currency losses. At September 30, 2022, we had open foreign currency forward contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $347 million, hedging certain forecasted transactions denominated in Canadian Dollars, U.S. Dollars, British Pounds, Euros and Australian Dollars. At December 31, 2021, we had open foreign currency forward contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $328 million, hedging certain forecasted transactions denominated in U.S. Dollars, Canadian Dollars, British Pounds, Euros and Australian Dollars. At September 30, 2022, our foreign currency forward contracts had maturities through 2025. Net unrealized losses recognized in other comprehensive loss were $20 million and $30 million for the quarter and three quarters ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and $10 million for the quarter ended October 1, 2021. Net unrealized gains and losses recognized in other comprehensive income were not material for the three quarters ended October 1, 2021. At September 30, 2022, the estimated amount of existing net losses to be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months was $22 million. |

Change in Accounting Estimate [Abstract] | |
CHANGES IN ESTIMATES | NOTE Q— CHANGES IN ESTIMATES Under the POC cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition, a single estimated profit margin is used to recognize profit for each performance obligation over its period of performance. Recognition of profit on a contract requires estimates of the total cost at completion and transaction price and the measurement of progress towards completion. Due to the long-term nature of many of our contracts, developing the estimated total cost at completion and total transaction price often requires judgment. Factors that must be considered in estimating the cost of the work to be completed include the nature and complexity of the work to be performed, subcontractor performance and the risk and impact of delayed performance. Factors that must be considered in estimating the total transaction price include contractual cost or performance incentives (such as incentive fees, award fees and penalties) and other forms of variable consideration as well as our historical experience and our expectation for performance on the contract. These variable amounts generally are awarded upon achievement of certain negotiated performance metrics, program milestones or cost targets and can be based upon customer discretion. We include such estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. At the outset of each contract, we gauge its complexity and perceived risks and establish an estimated total cost at completion in line with these expectations. After establishing the estimated total cost at completion, we follow a standard Estimate at Completion (“EAC”) process in which we review the progress and performance on our ongoing contracts at least quarterly. If we successfully retire risks associated with the technical, schedule and cost aspects of a contract, we may lower our estimated total cost at completion commensurate with the retirement of these risks. Conversely, if we are not successful in retiring these risks, we may increase our estimated total cost at completion. Additionally, as the contract progresses, our estimates of total transaction price may increase or decrease if, for example, we receive award fees that are higher or lower than expected. When adjustments in estimated total costs at completion or in estimated total transaction price are determined, the related impact on operating income is recognized using the cumulative catch-up method, which recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of such adjustments for all prior periods. Any anticipated losses on these contracts are fully recognized in the period in which the losses become evident. Net EAC adjustments had the following impact to earnings for the periods presented: Quarter Ended Three Quarters Ended (In millions, except per share amounts) September 30, 2022 October 1, 2021 September 30, 2022 October 1, 2021 Net EAC adjustments, before income taxes $ — $ 85 $ 58 $ 247 Net EAC adjustments, net of income taxes — 64 44 186 Net EAC adjustments, net of income taxes, per diluted share — 0.32 0.23 0.91 Revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied in prior periods was $23 million and $113 million for the quarter and three quarters ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and $102 million and $317 million for the quarter and three quarters ended October 1, 2021, respectively. |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
BACKLOG | NOTE F— CONTRACT ASSETS AND CONTRACT LIABILITIES Contract assets include unbilled amounts typically resulting from revenue recognized exceeding amounts billed to customers for contracts utilizing the percentage of completion (“POC”) cost-to-cost revenue recognition method. We bill customers as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals, upon achievement of contractual milestones or upon deliveries and, in certain arrangements, the customer may withhold payment of a small portion of the contract price until contract completion. Contract liabilities include advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized, including deferred revenue associated with extended product warranties. Contract assets and liabilities are reported on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. Contract assets and liabilities in the three quarters ended September 30, 2022 were impacted primarily by the timing of contractual billing milestones. Contract assets and contract liabilities are summarized below: (In millions) September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Contract assets $ 3,135 $ 3,021 Contract liabilities, current (1,158) (1,297) Contract liabilities, non-current (1) (117) (107) Net contract assets $ 1,860 $ 1,617 _______________ (1) The non-current portion of contract liabilities is included as a component of the “Other long-term liabilities” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (Unaudited). The components of contract assets are summarized below: (In millions) September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Unbilled contract receivables, gross $ 4,737 $ 4,921 Unliquidated progress payments and advances (1,602) (1,900) Contract assets $ 3,135 $ 3,021 NOTE R— BACKLOG Backlog, which is the equivalent of our remaining performance obligations, represents the future revenue we expect to recognize as we perform on our current contracts. Backlog comprises both funded backlog (i.e., firm orders for which funding is authorized and appropriated) and unfunded backlog. Backlog excludes unexercised contract options and potential orders under ordering-type contracts, such as indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contracts. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION | NOTE S— BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION Effective for fiscal 2022, which began January 1, 2022, we report our financial results in the following three reportable segments: • Integrated Mission Systems, including multi-mission intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (“ISR”) systems; integrated electrical and electronic systems for maritime platforms; advanced electro-optical and infrared (“EO/IR”) solutions; fuzing and ordnance systems; commercial aviation products; and commercial pilot training operations; • Space & Airborne Systems, including space payloads, sensors and full-mission solutions; classified intelligence and cyber; avionics; electronic warfare; and mission networks for air traffic management operations; and • Communication Systems, including tactical communications with global communications solutions; broadband communications; integrated vision solutions; and public safety radios, system applications and equipment. We structure our operations primarily around the products, systems and services we sell and the markets we serve. Effective January 1, 2022, we have streamlined our business segments from four business segments to three business segments. As a result of the segment reorganization, the Aviation Systems segment was eliminated as a business segment. As part of our new business segment structure, the ongoing operations that had been part of our former Aviation Systems segment were integrated into the remaining segments. Fuzing and ordnance systems, commercial aviation products and commercial pilot training operations were moved into our Integrated Mission Systems segment; and mission networks for air traffic management operations was moved into our Space & Airborne Systems segment. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we adjusted our reporting within our Integrated Mission Systems segment to better align our businesses and transferred our precision engagement business, which includes fuzing and ordnance systems, from our ADG reporting unit to our Electro Optical reporting unit. See Note B — Business Divestitures and Asset Sales in these Notes for information relating to businesses divested and asset sales during the quarter and three quarters ended September 30, 2022 and October 1, 2021. The accounting policies of our business segments are the same as those described in Note 1: “Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K. We evaluate each business segment’s performance based on its operating income or loss, which we define as profit or loss from operations before income taxes, including CAS pension cost and excluding interest income and expense, royalties and related intellectual property expenses, equity method investment income or loss and gains or losses from securities and other investments. Intersegment sales are generally transferred at cost to the buying segment, and the sourcing segment recognizes a profit that is eliminated. The “Corporate eliminations” line item in the table below represents the elimination of intersegment sales. Corporate expenses are primarily allocated to our business segments using an allocation methodology prescribed by U.S. Government regulations for government contractors. The unallocated items in the table below represent the portion of corporate expenses not allocated to our business segments and elimination of intersegment profits. In accordance with CAS, we allocate a portion of pension and other postretirement benefit plan costs to our U.S. Government contracts. However, our consolidated financial statements require pension and other postretirement benefit plan income or expense be calculated in accordance with FAS requirements under GAAP. The “FAS/CAS operating adjustment” line item in the table below represents the difference between the service cost component of FAS pension and OPEB expense and total CAS pension and OPEB cost. The net non-service cost components of FAS pension and OPEB income are included as an income component in the “Non-operating income, net” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited). See Note L — Postretirement Benefit Plans for more information on the composition of non-service components of FAS pension and OPEB income and expense.

For the three quarters ended September 30, 2022, $20 million of income from our deferred compensation plans and $11 million of income from GHG emission reduction projects. For the three quarters ended October 1, 2021, includes a $15 million accrual for a value added tax obligation and $9 million of loss related to our deferred compensation plans. (2) Includes amortization of identifiable intangible assets acquired as a result of the all-stock merger between Harris Corporation and L3 Technologies, Inc. (the “L3Harris Merger”) and the acquisition of Exelis Inc. (“Exelis”). Because the L3Harris Merger and the acquisition of Exelis benefited the entire Company as opposed to any individual segment, the amortization of identifiable intangible assets acquired was not allocated to any segment. (3) Represents the difference between the service cost component of FAS pension and OPEB income and total CAS pension and OPEB cost and replaces the “Pension adjustment” line item previously presented, which included the non-service components of FAS pension and OPEB income.

Legal Proceedings And Contingencies [Abstract] | |
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE T— LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND CONTINGENCIES From time to time, as a normal incident of the nature and kind of businesses in which we are or were engaged, various claims or charges are asserted and litigation or arbitration is commenced by or against us arising from or related to matters, including, but not limited to: product liability; personal injury; patents, trademarks, trade secrets or other intellectual property; labor and employee disputes; commercial or contractual disputes; strategic acquisitions or divestitures; the prior sale or use of former products allegedly containing asbestos or other restricted materials; breach of warranty; environmental matters; or compliance with government procurement or related legal or regulatory requirements. Claimed amounts against us may be substantial, but may not bear any reasonable relationship to the merits of the claim or the extent of any real risk of court or arbitral awards. We record accruals for losses related to those matters against us that we consider to be probable and that can be reasonably estimated (for example, we recorded an additional $31 million charge related to a pre-merger legal contingency during the quarter ended September 30, 2022). Gain contingencies, if any, are recognized when they are realized and legal costs generally are expensed when incurred. At September 30, 2022, our accrual for the potential resolution of lawsuits, claims, investigations or proceedings that we consider probable of being decided unfavorably to us was not material. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters with certainty, it is reasonably possible that some lawsuits, claims, investigations or proceedings may be disposed of or decided unfavorably to us and in excess of the amounts currently accrued. Based on available information, in the opinion of management, settlements, arbitration awards and final judgments, if any, that are considered probable of being rendered against us in litigation or arbitration or resulting from claims or investigations in existence at September 30, 2022 are reserved against or would not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or equity. Environmental Matters We are subject to numerous U.S. Federal, state, local and international environmental laws and regulatory requirements and are involved from time to time in investigations or litigation of various potential environmental issues. We or companies we have acquired are responsible, or alleged to be responsible, for environmental investigation and/or remediation of multiple sites. These sites are in various stages of investigation and/or remediation and in some cases our liability is considered de minimis. Notices from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) or equivalent state or international environmental agencies allege that several sites formerly or currently owned and/or operated by us or companies we have acquired, and other properties or water supplies that may be or have been impacted from those operations, contain disposed or recycled materials or wastes and require environmental investigation and/or remediation. These sites include instances of being identified as a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (commonly known as the “Superfund Act”) and/or equivalent state and international laws. For example, in June 2014, the U.S. Department of Justice, Environment and Natural Resources Division, notified several potentially responsible parties, including Exelis, which we acquired in 2015, of potential responsibility for contribution to the environmental investigation and remediation of multiple locations in Alaska. In addition, in March 2016, the EPA notified over 100 potentially responsible parties, including Exelis, of potential liability for the cost of remediation for the 8.3-mile stretch of the Lower Passaic River in New Jersey, estimated by the EPA to be $1.38 billion. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, the EPA further announced an interim plan to remediate sediment in the upper nine miles of the of the Lower Passaic River with an estimated cost of $441 million. The potential responsible parties’ respective allocations for the Lower Passaic River remediation have not been determined. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these environmental claims made against us, based on available information, in the opinion of our management, any payments we may be required to make as a result of environmental claims made against us in existence at September 30, 2022 are reserved against, covered by insurance or would not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or equity. |

Basis of Presentation | Basis of PresentationThe accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) include the accounts of L3Harris Technologies, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. As used in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (these “Notes”), the terms “L3Harris,” “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to L3Harris Technologies, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. Intracompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) have been prepared by L3Harris in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, such interim financial statements do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and equity in conformity with GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, such interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and equity for the periods presented therein. The results for the quarter and three quarters ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year or any subsequent period. The balance sheet at December 31, 2021 has been derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. We provide complete, audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which includes information and footnotes required by the rules and regulations of the SEC. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”) should be read in conjunction with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (our “Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K”). |
Business Segment Information | Segment reorganization and change in accounting policy: We implemented a new organizational structure effective January 1, 2022, resulting in changes to our operating segments, which are also our reportable segments and are referred to as our business segments. The new structure streamlined our business segments from four to three business segments. Our former Aviation Systems segment was eliminated as a business segment. We updated our business segment reporting and accounting policies for pension and other postretirement benefits plan (“OPEB”) income or expense to better align our presentation of business segment information with our industry peers. Our business segment operating results include pension and OPEB cost under U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards (“CAS”), as CAS pension and OPEB cost is allocable to and allowable under contracts with the U.S. Government. We no longer assign or allocate Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) pension and OPEB income or expense to our business segments. GAAP requires pension and OPEB income or expense to be recognized on a FAS basis. Therefore, we present a “FAS/CAS operating adjustment” outside of business segment results, representing the difference between the service cost component of FAS pension and OPEB income or expense and total CAS pension and OPEB cost or expense. Non-service cost components of FAS pension and OPEB income or expense are included as a component of non-operating income or expense. Effective for fiscal 2022, which began January 1, 2022, we report our financial results in the following three reportable segments: • Integrated Mission Systems, including multi-mission intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (“ISR”) systems; integrated electrical and electronic systems for maritime platforms; advanced electro-optical and infrared (“EO/IR”) solutions; fuzing and ordnance systems; commercial aviation products; and commercial pilot training operations; • Space & Airborne Systems, including space payloads, sensors and full-mission solutions; classified intelligence and cyber; avionics; electronic warfare; and mission networks for air traffic management operations; and • Communication Systems, including tactical communications with global communications solutions; broadband communications; integrated vision solutions; and public safety radios, system applications and equipment. We structure our operations primarily around the products, systems and services we sell and the markets we serve. Effective January 1, 2022, we have streamlined our business segments from four business segments to three business segments. As a result of the segment reorganization, the Aviation Systems segment was eliminated as a business segment. As part of our new business segment structure, the ongoing operations that had been part of our former Aviation Systems segment were integrated into the remaining segments. Fuzing and ordnance systems, commercial aviation products and commercial pilot training operations were moved into our Integrated Mission Systems segment; and mission networks for air traffic management operations was moved into our Space & Airborne Systems segment. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we adjusted our reporting within our Integrated Mission Systems segment to better align our businesses and transferred our precision engagement business, which includes fuzing and ordnance systems, from our ADG reporting unit to our Electro Optical reporting unit. See Note B — Business Divestitures and Asset Sales in these Notes for information relating to businesses divested and asset sales during the quarter and three quarters ended September 30, 2022 and October 1, 2021. The accounting policies of our business segments are the same as those described in Note 1: “Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K. We evaluate each business segment’s performance based on its operating income or loss, which we define as profit or loss from operations before income taxes, including CAS pension cost and excluding interest income and expense, royalties and related intellectual property expenses, equity method investment income or loss and gains or losses from securities and other investments. Intersegment sales are generally transferred at cost to the buying segment, and the sourcing segment recognizes a profit that is eliminated. The “Corporate eliminations” line item in the table below represents the elimination of intersegment sales. Corporate expenses are primarily allocated to our business segments using an allocation methodology prescribed by U.S. Government regulations for government contractors. The unallocated items in the table below represent the portion of corporate expenses not allocated to our business segments and elimination of intersegment profits. In accordance with CAS, we allocate a portion of pension and other postretirement benefit plan costs to our U.S. Government contracts. However, our consolidated financial statements require pension and other postretirement benefit plan income or expense be calculated in accordance with FAS requirements under GAAP. The “FAS/CAS operating adjustment” line item in the table below represents the difference between the service cost component of FAS pension and OPEB expense and total CAS pension and OPEB cost. The net non-service cost components of FAS pension and OPEB income are included as an income component in the “Non-operating income, net” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited). See Note L — Postretirement Benefit Plans for more information on the composition of non-service components of FAS pension and OPEB income and expense. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and these Notes and related disclosures. These estimates and assumptions are based on experience and other information available prior to issuance of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and these Notes. Materially different results can occur as circumstances change and additional information becomes known. |
Significant Accounting Policies Update | Significant Accounting Policies Update There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies described in our Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K. |
Earnings Per Share | ncome from continuing operations per common share attributable to L3Harris common shareholders (“EPS”) is computed using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines EPS for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends paid and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Under the two-class method, EPS is computed by dividing the sum of earnings distributed to L3Harris common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to L3Harris common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. (Loss) income from continuing operations per diluted common share attributable to L3Harris common shareholders (“diluted EPS”) is computed using the more dilutive of the two-class method or the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, diluted EPS is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to L3Harris common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period. |
Fair Value Transfer | Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or the price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal market or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Entities are required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in measuring fair value, and to utilize a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows: • Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means. • Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities, and reflect our own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed using the best information available in the circumstances. In certain instances, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices obtained from external pricing services. In obtaining such data from the external pricing services, we have evaluated the methodologies used to develop the estimate of fair value in order to assess whether such valuations are representative of fair value, including net asset value (“NAV”).
