Garmin Foretrex 701 Ballistic Edition
Description
Hands-Free Navigation Anywhere
The Foretrex 701 is designed for users who need dependable navigation without carrying a traditional handheld GPS. Worn comfortably on the wrist, it provides accurate positioning using GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo satellite systems, helping maintain navigation even in challenging environments where satellite visibility may be reduced.
Built-in navigation sensors, including a 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass, barometric altimeter, and accelerometer, provide additional situational awareness whether you're hiking, navigating off-road, or operating in demanding field conditions.
Applied Ballistics® Elite Integration
What distinguishes the Foretrex 701 Ballistic Edition is its integrated Applied Ballistics Elite solver. Designed for precision shooters, it calculates accurate elevation and windage solutions using detailed projectile models and environmental inputs, reducing the need for separate ballistic calculators in the field.
The software also supports dynamic range cards and advanced ballistic profiles, making it suitable for military applications, long-range competition, and professional shooting environments where precision matters.
Built for Demanding Conditions
Constructed to meet MIL-STD-810G standards for thermal performance, shock, and water resistance, the Foretrex 701 is built to withstand challenging outdoor environments. Its compact, lightweight design makes it comfortable for extended wear, while the high-contrast monochrome display remains easy to read in bright sunlight and is compatible with night vision goggles for tactical applications.
Powered by two standard AAA batteries, the device offers exceptional runtime without relying on proprietary rechargeable batteries, making replacements easy to find during extended deployments or expeditions.
Designed for Professional and Outdoor Applications
