Ready for anything

Leading the way for digital transformation in the defence sector, Panasonic TOUGHBOOK is optimising defence operations and military efficiency​.

Panasonic TOUGHBOOK mission-ready mobile devices are trusted by international defence partners and tested to the strictest military standards for reliability and durability. Where others fail, TOUGHBOOK is on hand to support the team.

Rugged devices built to handle any mission

During training and military operations, having technology you can count on isn’t just important – it’s critical. 

For over 20 years we’ve worked in partnership with defence organisations and system integrators to deliver rugged, commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) mobile solutions for today’s digitally enabled militaries. 

 

"They are built to withstand the harshest of environments, even a battlefield."

Mission ready

Unfailingly durable

Designed to perform effectively in even the most hostile of environments, TOUGHBOOK mobile PCs, tablets and handhelds meet the strictest requirements for protection against drops, vibrations, sand, dust, rain, altitude, temperature extremes and more. And our military-grade offerings are certified to MIL-STD-810H standards.

Security and connectivity where it matters most

Armed with the latest in security, software and hardware, TOUGHBOOK is unparalleled when it comes to risk reduction, data sensitivity and discretion. 

Forces can protect vital information quickly, with a removable SSD, Viasat encryption and Tempesting options.​

Optimized connectivity functions from 5G to vehicle dockings with military connectors support flawless and effective operations.

Long-term support

Undetectable operations

When it’s mission critical that personnel go under the radar, the TOUGHBOOK concealed mode allows all radio and display features to be disabled in less than a second and at the push of a button.

Devices can also be certified to MIL-STD-461H, ensuring they meet strict controls for limited electro-magnetic interference.

Ongoing support

Eliminate the cost and hassle of replacing hardware every few years. Our military-grade products are designed to last for longer and come with a variety of TOUGHBOOK support and warranty options to meet any operational requirement.

Panasonic is a reliable partner. Not only with the long-term product roadmap, which allows for long-term support and supply, but also the backwards compatibility with most of our legacy ecosystems and docks to protect and prolong investments.

Modular customisation and more

Because every user – and every mission – is different, we offer modular customisation options, hard- and software integrations and fit-for-purpose accessories. Everything engineered for the defence sector.

To protect vital information fast we offer removable SSD and Viasat encryption options. Military connectors can be added to devices for secure connections and our experienced In-house Engineering and Development Team develops custom designed docks for specific military use cases. From military rugged vehicle docking mounting brackets for secure battlefield transportation to specialist docks, products and integration of other peripherals.
