Mung is correct, I know a bit about the Hammerheads. In fact, I have
responsibility for all Military and Rugged Computing Systems at DRS
Tactical Systems. In particular, I have the MRT version of the
Hammerhead design, upgraded for full MIL spec. We drive over these with
trucks, submerge them, in fact, we beat the heck out of them. Quite a
nice piece of engineering if I must say. Sorry about the following
link, the picture of the product is not posted right now but the specs
are listed.

And yes, they are very expensive. But you get what you pay for.
