Panasonic TOUGHBOOK: the world's #1 rugged devices built to handle any mission
We’ve worked in partnership with Defence organisations for over 20 years to deliver vehicle-mounted and handheld rugged mobile PC solutions for today’s digitally enabled military.
Our mission-ready, commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) mobile devices are trusted by Defence forces and system integrators around the world. Why? Because they’re tested to the toughest military standards, ensuring durability, reliability and security.
"Toughbook is perfect for remote field operations because it’s rugged and reliable to military standards"*

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.
In the heart of the action, having technology you can count on isn’t just important: it’s mission critical. Panasonic TOUGHBOOK PCs are eight times more reliable than average industry notebooks without rugged features*

Cost Effective and User Friendly
At Panasonic, we’ve developed devices that can be easily and cost-effectively deployed into any organisation across the sector.
Based on Defence customer feedback, they look and feel like the commercial systems your soldiers use in civilian life, while maintaining optimum ruggedisation standards. So, upon deployment, your force can get to grips with usability faster.

Superior Security
Ultra-portable accessories that don’t compromise on toughness – or security. TOUGHBOOK engineer devices for Defence with removable solid-state drives (SSDs) to guarantee that whatever happens to the unit during operations, there’s no risk of losing highly-sensitive data. Additionally, Military Standard MIL-DTL-38999 ports can be added for strong and secure connections without any risk of leads falling out or coming loose.
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.

Modular Customisation and More
Because every user and organisation is different, in conjunction with partners we offer design customisation and software integrations, engineered for the Defence sector.
We can also tailor specific accessories. For example, our vehicle docking solutions can come with a variety of mounting brackets, and can also be made suitable for transportation to and from the battlefield.
