Government, Military & Defense Cases

Government, military, and defense cases protect mission equipment through deployment, field use, and repeated transport. Many models are tested to MIL-STD 810H or rated ATA 300 Category I, with lockable, waterproof hard shells. Shop shock-isolated rack cases, Starlink and Motorola APX radio cases, rugged laptop and server cases, lockable weapons cases, and oversized transit cases from SKB, Pelican, Gemstar, Nanuk, and our own Specialty Cases line.

Defense case selection guide

How to Choose a Mission-Ready Case

A good defense case starts with the equipment, then the way it moves, then the standards the program requires.

1. Define the Equipment

Record dimensions, weight, rack units, or device counts, plus the accessories, cables, and spares that travel with it.

2. Match the Transport Profile

Vehicle, air, and freight each call for different protection: shock-isolated racks for sensitive electronics, stackable roto-molded cases for palletized loads, lockable cases for weapons and controlled items.

3. Confirm the Standards

Check each product page for the certifications your program requires, such as MIL-STD 810H, ATA 300 Category I, or an IP rating, and filter by Certifications to narrow the list.

Government and defense FAQs

Common Government and Defense Case Questions

What does MIL-STD 810H mean for a protective case?

MIL-STD 810H is the Department of Defense standard for environmental test methods, covering conditions like drop, vibration, immersion, temperature, and humidity. Manufacturers test cases to specific methods within the standard, so check each product page for the tests that apply to that model.

What is ATA 300 Category I?

ATA Spec 300 is the airline industry standard for reusable shipping containers. Category I cases are designed to withstand at least 100 round trips of airline handling.

When do I need a shock rack instead of a standard rack case?

Choose a shock rack when rack-mount electronics are sensitive to impact or vibration, or when the case travels by vehicle, air, or freight. The frame floats on shock isolators inside the outer shell, so impacts are absorbed before they reach the equipment.

Do you provide a Section 889 compliance form?

Yes. Section 889 of the FY2019 National Defense Authorization Act restricts federal purchases of certain telecommunications equipment. Our Section 889 compliance form is available for download, along with our W-9.

Can Specialty Cases support purchase orders and quantity orders?

Yes. Request a quote for purchase orders, quantity pricing, and custom foam, and apply for credit approval if your agency or company needs terms.

Start With the Equipment

Match the Transport

Vehicle, air, and freight each change the protection a case needs.

Verify the Standard

Certifications differ by model, so confirm MIL-STD and ATA ratings on each product page.
