BlackBerry is working on an ultra-secure phone that can self-destruct when someone tries to mess with it, and it's working with defense contractor Boeing to make this device a reality.

John Chen, CEO of the Canadian phone maker, announced the device at a press conference on Friday, saying the phone will be produced through the integration with the company's end-to-end BlackBerry Enterprise Service (BES 12) platform, according to NDTV Gadgets.

The smartphone will be tasked with erasing data in case it is dissembled, which will be done by its tamper-proof covering revealed in an FCC filing in February. Boeing revealed other features at the same time the FCC filing took place, including dual-SIM support, along with a back panel that can expand for biometric scanners and satellite transceivers so it can connect to satellites to allow communication on secure lines.

The 4.3-inch display has a 540 x 960 pixel resolution, NDTV Gadgets reported. Additional features of the phone include a 1.2GHz dual-core ARM Coretx-A9 chipset and GSM/WCDMA/LTE connectivity.

Government agencies are the target customers for the Black Boeing Phone, which will also be tasked, ironically, with encrypting phone calls to prevent others from listening in on them, The Telegraph reported.

Boeing's role in creating the phone has yet to be revealed, as the BES 12 platform integration was the only detail that Chen was permitted to reveal at Friday's conference.

"That, by the way, is all they allow me to say," Chen said.
