Defense Computers

Kontron Defense Computers range from compact to modular mission computers, rugged blade computers, rugged enclosures and rugged ethernet switches.

Compact Mission Computers

Kontron’s next-generation COBALT™ product family delivers application-specific I/O ideally suited to established military application profiles. The new I/O options are cost-effective, modular solutions that streamline integration of situational awareness, removable storage and processor/networking switch capabilities.

Modular Mission Computers

Kontron modular computers implement a sealed VPX based architecture. Based on Kontron’s vast VPX offering, they offer minimal footprint and maximal configurability for rugged environments.

Rugged Blade Computers

StarVX is a modular baseline to build highly parallel rugged computers, featuring leading edge I/O bandwidth on the back plane, (10 times better than currently deploying HPEC architectures).

Rugged Rackmount Servers

The Cobalt™ RR-2500 brings high-performance compute power to the tactical edge, enabling AI, real-time analytics, and secure data processing in the harshest environments. With support for Intel® Xeon® SP and AMD EPYC™ 9004/9005 processors, this rugged 2U server is built to keep critical operations running—whether on the battlefield, at sea, in the air, or within mobile command units.
