If you’ve ever had the need for a smartphone case that can withstand a beating, look no further. Ballistic has just announced that their HC case is now the world’s first military-compliant iPhone 4 case. In case you were wondering, HC stands for Hard Core. Designed specifically for the iPhone 4 (Ballistic has created similar cases for other phones as well), the Ballistic HC iPhone 4 case has multiple levels of protection to ensure your iPhone gets damaged by nothing less than a bullet or a grenade in battle. The case grants your iPhone 4 shock absorption, water resistance, dust/dirt resistance, and more. It even features a built in screen protector to keep your precious Retina Display from receiving any scratches. By meeting military specifications, you can be sure that your glassy fragile device can survive more than a little rough handling before croaking. The Ballistic HC iPhone 4 case is available online for $49.99.
