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.
Segment revenue, segment operating income and a reconciliation of segment operating income to total income from continuing operations before income taxes are as follows:

(1)For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, $11 million of income from greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emission reduction projects and $10 million of income from our deferred compensation plans. 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. See Net FAS/CAS operating adjustment table below.

Disaggregation of Revenue
We disaggregate revenue for all three business segments by customer relationship, contract type and geographical region. We believe these categories best depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
