L-3's good defense is its best commercial offense. L-3 Communications Holdings makes secure and specialized systems for satellite, avionics, and marine communications. The US government (primarily the Department of Defense) accounts for about 80% of the company's business, but L-3 is using acquisitions to expand its commercial offerings. As a government contractor, the company is subject to the whims of the Pentagon and other government agencies; L-3 also faces potential cuts in military programs by the Obama administration. The company makes most of its sales in North America.
