Mechanical modifications and peripheral development
We offer limitless customization for flight line maintenance and other demanding military operations. Military personnel often need to react quickly, grabbing and using equipment under time pressure. Equipment is also constantly transported by land, air, and sea. During transit, devices may be exposed to vibrations, shocks, and rough landings.
Tailor ultra-rugged devices with extra protection covers and reinforced structures to keep devices functional and reliable, even in such extreme conditions and during rough handling.
Our devices can be designed to be highly resistant to dislodgement and prevent foreign object damage (FOD). For easy device management, we can also assist you in pre-applying the IUID (Item Unique Identification) label before roll-out, saving time and reducing the burden on military personnel in charge of IT.
Electrical modifications
With electrical modifications, you can achieve faster processing, enhanced multitasking, expanded storage, and more. Equip your devices with rugged military connectors for reliable integration with military equipment. Boost data transfer speeds with a fiber optic Ethernet port and expand your storage with SSD customizations.
Military systems, including communication devices, radar, and navigation systems, operate in close proximity and often at high power levels. Without adequate shielding, electromagnetic radiation from one device can interfere with the operation of another. We can customize devices with effective EMI shielding to prevent mutual interference and minimize electromagnetic emissions that could otherwise be detected by enemy forces.
Customized BIOS
Getac offers an impressive suite of software solutions that integrate seamlessly with our rugged devices. To streamline deployment and enhance ease of use, BIOS customization ensures that each device comes pre-configured with company-preferred settings right out of the box.
A popular customization includes presetting your device such that users can access essential company applications upon startup. This standardization simplifies device rollouts, reduces setup time, and ensures personnel can get to work without disruptions to familiar workflows.
Compliance Support
At Getac, we work to ensure that you can use your devices seamlessly wherever you operate. We can help with additional certification applications, testing, documentation, and ensuring adherence to specific military standards.
Getac is a one-stop technology provider in every sense, highly versatile and adaptable to a wide range of specialized requirements. From design, hardware, or software modifications to single modification or a combination of changes, we are fully equipped to collaborate with you on a custom-fit solution.

Our Success Stories
Customizing Military Device for Increased Functionality
Rugged tablets are built for the most demanding environments, but what about the data you rely on? PCMCIA cards, while still crucial for many military planning and operations, are often incompatible with modern high-speed computers.
Getac customized the S410 rugged laptop to be able to use 2 PCMCIA readers in a single device, by adding a PCMCIA reader into the Battery Bay. This adjustment added an important capability to the device, allowing it to be used on more air frames. This expands the functionality of military computers and communication equipment by opening up room for peripheral functionalities. In addition, a new rubber door was placed on the PCMCIA IO port to maintain the S410 IP (Ingress Protection) rating, where electrical enclosures are protected against dust, water, and other foreign body intrusions.
Fully Rugged Laptop for Flight Line Maintenance – Getac B360 FLM
When precision and reliability matter most, the Getac B360 FLM delivers. Purpose-built to withstand the demanding conditions of military aviation, this rugged laptop provides the performance and durability needed for mission-critical tasks.
Equipped with MIL-STD-810H certification and a reinforced exterior, the B360 FLM is built to withstand drops, shocks, and extreme temperatures. Customizable with a wide array of I/O ports and multi-factor authentication options, the device ensures seamless connectivity with flight line equipment, streamlining maintenance operations in a secure manner.
*Getac B360 FLM is currently available in North America only.
BIOS-Level Docking Port Control for Enhanced Data Security
In high-security command environments, a military client required stricter control over data access during field operations. Getac responded with a BIOS-level customization for the B360, enabling control of docking station ports. The solution ensured mission confidentiality and upheld stringent data protection standards, even during docked operation.
Tamper-Proof Tech to Protect Sensitive Data for Defense Operations
To meet strict data protection protocols in command environments, Getac customized the B360 with a tamper-detection mechanism that safeguards information even if the chassis is accessed while powered off. This auto-lockdown feature ensures that sensitive data remains inaccessible, aligning with the high-security standards required for defense operations.
FOD Prevention to Ensure Safety in Aircraft Carrier Maintenance
In aircraft carrier environments where debris can endanger missions, a high-stakes maintenance operation needed laptops that wouldn’t compromise safety. Getac customized the B360 with FOD-prevention features, including reinforced components and proven drop resistance, ensuring zero debris risk and dependable performance under extreme conditions.
Expanded I/O for Enhanced Aviation Maintenance Compatibility
To meet strict compatibility and performance requirements in a military aviation maintenance kit, Getac engineered a custom B360 with expanded I/O—adding RS232 serial and USB-A ports for stable legacy integration. The solution met operational specs, improved diagnostic efficiency, and was delivered with accelerated lead time.
Custom Fit for Classified Missions: Getac Adapts B360 Pro for Encrypted SSD Use
Critical command environments often require support for specialized encrypted storage. Getac modified the B360 Pro with a custom hardware board to accommodate 2.5-inch encrypted SSDs as primary storage. This mission-ready solution enhances data protection while maintaining system integrity across high-security deployments.
Enhanced Protection for Rugged Military Aviation Use
Military aviation technicians rely on laptops that can survive tool drops, dragging, and rough handling. To ensure field readiness, Getac equipped the B360 with a reinforced top and bottom protective casing, thickened palm rests, and durable footing protection. These upgrades extend device life and support reliable maintenance in one of the harsh operational settings.
