Samsung has released the Galaxy Tab Active5 Tactical Edition in the U.S., built for military teams needing a rugged, secure, and connected tablet for field use. It supports operations in harsh, off-grid environments and is designed to work with tactical radios, drones, GPS units, and mission systems.

The tablet has an 8-inch WUXGA display with up to 120Hz refresh rate and Gorilla Glass 5 protection. It runs on the 5nm Exynos 1380 octa-core processor, with 6GB RAM and 128GB internal storage, expandable up to 1TB with a microSD card. It includes a removable 5,050mAh battery and supports 5G, LTE, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, and NFC. It has dual SIM (physical SIM + eSIM) support. For optics, the tablet has a 5MP front camera, and 13MP rear camera.

The device meets IP68 and MIL-STD-810H standards for water, dust, shock, and vibration resistance. It comes with an S Pen, a programmable key, and supports touch use even with gloves or wet hands. It’s kneeboard-ready for aviation use and steady enough for use in fixed-wing and rotary aircraft.

Security features include Samsung Knox, Knox Vault, and Knox DualDAR, offering protection for up to top-secret data. It is certified under CSfC, NIAP, FIPS 140-2/3.1, DODIN APL, and DISA STIG. It also supports dual VPN chaining for secure connections.

The tablet includes tactical tools like Covert Lock (disables radios, GPS, and cameras), Stealth Mode (shuts off LTE and RF signals), and Night Vision Mode. It comes preloaded with Tactical Settings for offline setup and policy configuration.

The Galaxy Tab Active5 Tactical Edition is available only through Vertex Wireless and is certified for use in classified military operations.
