Let's say (hypothetically) I want to start building electronics projects intended for use in military and naval applications. Naturally, the PCBs and their respective components must be absurdly durable and reliable, being able to withstand extreme temperature, pressure, shock, and corrosive environments.
A good place to start is using low profile ICs and components, in addition to abiding by the IPC class 3 standards. What are some other measures I can take to make sure these circuits are fool proof? What about the board mounted cable connectors? The Molex ones I have are quite tall and seem like they could break a solder joint if stressed too hard.
All input is greatly appreciated!
