Garmin Foretrex 901 Ballistic Edition is a purpose-built wrist-mounted GPS navigator designed for professional navigation and long-range ballistic calculations. Featuring an easy-to-read monochromatic display, multi-band GNSS positioning and integrated Applied Ballistics® software, it delivers reliable navigation and precision shooting support in demanding environments.
Integrated Applied Ballistics Solver
The Foretrex 901 includes onboard Applied Ballistics software, allowing precise long-range shot calculations directly on the device. Ballistic profiles can be managed wirelessly using a compatible smartphone through the AB Synapse™ – Garmin app, making updates and adjustments fast and secure.
Advanced Tactical Features
Designed for tactical and professional use, the device includes stealth mode to disable wireless connectivity and GPS data storage. In critical situations, the dedicated kill switch instantly wipes device memory. Jumpmaster mode supports high-altitude release calculations according to military guidelines.
Rugged and Mission-Ready
The Foretrex 901 is tested to MIL-STD-810 standards and rated IPX7 for water resistance. It is built to withstand sand, dust, vibration, shock, extreme temperatures, altitude and humidity, making it suitable for harsh operational conditions.
Long Battery Life with Field-Replaceable Power
Powered by two standard AAA batteries (not included), the device delivers up to 100 hours in navigation mode and up to 1000 hours in expedition mode. Field-replaceable batteries ensure extended operation without reliance on charging infrastructure.

FAQ
What is the Applied Ballistics software used for?
It calculates precise long-range shooting solutions based on ballistic profiles, environmental data and weapon parameters.
Can the Foretrex 901 operate without a smartphone?
Yes. All core navigation and ballistic functions work independently; a smartphone is only required for profile management and notifications.
What does stealth mode do?
Stealth mode disables wireless connectivity and stops storing or sharing GPS location data.
Is satellite communication included?
No. Satellite messaging requires pairing with a compatible Garmin inReach® device and an active subscription.
