The Garmin tactix 8 Solar GPS redefines the tactical / survival smartwatch and includes the Applied Ballistics Ultralight™ Solver. This advanced tactical GPS smartwatch features a bright 1.4-inch solar charged display, titanium bezel and sapphire lens, and enhanced graphical interface. It’s tested to U.S. military standards for thermal, shock and water resistance. Dedicated tactical features include a jumpmaster activity, waypoint projection, dual-position GPS format, stealth mode, kill switch, compatibility with night vision goggles and rucking activity. Navigate the outdoors with superior positioning accuracy, thanks to multi-band GPS with SatIQ™ technology plus built-in sensors for the 3-axis compass, gyroscope and barometric altimeter. The preloaded Applied Ballistics solver gives you access to aiming solutions for long-range shooting in the field. With a 40-meter dive rating, you’re ready to go to greater depths than ever with support for scuba and apnea dive activities. To help guide your way in low-light conditions, a built-in multicolor LED flashlight provides quick access to a bright, steady beam in either green or white light. In NVG mode, white is disabled, and the green flashlight becomes dimmable. Night Vision Capable – Whether viewed under NODs or operating in the dark, NVG mode allows for stealthy operation with controls to further dim brightness and black out the display to reduce detectability. Stealth Mode – While keeping the watch operational, stealth mode stops storing and sharing your GPS position and disables wireless connectivity and communication. Projected Waypoints – Set and save remote geo positions to be used later for navigation. Rucking Activity – A dedicated rucking activity profile allows you to input your pack weight. Direct-To Navigation – Navigate straight to a location or waypoint in the worldwide aeronautical database. Or choose the Nearest function to activate a path to a nearby airport. Weather Reports – Access aviation weather, including NEXRAD radar, METARs and TAFs, to see winds, visibility, barometric pressure and more. Applied Ballistics Quantum App – Download the AB Quantum mobile app on your compatible Apple® or Android™ smartphone to manage profiles and targets or use your smartphone as an additional display. The Garmin tactix® 8 Solar also features a full suite of activity tracking, health monitoring, navigation support with SATIQ technology, and connectivity and communication with compatible Apple® or Android™ devices.
