@@MrCycled Because we can afford it as a NATO member. German mil tech is still strong but would not be fielded until other countrys buys it too. That is until now of course.

Yeah and it is a huge box on wheels. Only the front is properly armored. All other sides you are a sitting duck in this metal can. Do you wanna know why slanted armor works better? Get a physics course. Hint: recoil and thicker 'armor'.

Well... at first glance, you are correct, @provinzGFX. But what you failed to mention is that the Boxer is modular and therefore flexible and capable for a variety of scenarios.

@@ForOdinAndAsgard oh wow! Thanks! Could you elaborate please? Is it being a box on wheels why the called it Boxer?

I think you need to pay closer attention. The Boxer has a mobility module and a mission module. The mission module is a key feature here because of its ability to quickly adapt to mission characteristics . Its a complete mission variant vehicle pod-like adaptable interchangeable mission platform vehicle modular thing and you can change it.

@@Budor77 but is it modular?

Absolutely, the German Boxer served in the Wehrmacht and in the police after the war.😉

Because it's not modular and therefore not flexible and only capable for a few scenarios.

@@gehteuchnixan69 democratic Germany of course

well they are going to splash 100 billion on its military now, we´ll see how it pans out xD

​@@Helmovic If anything Germany is probably THE country I would trust the most to have a very powerful army and not let their army destroy Europe and drag the whole world into a world war because of their imperialistic delusions. German collective consciousness would simply not let that happen, it's something that is being taken very seriously and hammered into the heads of people starting when they're children. But they have lived with the shame of their past for too long now, it's not fair to keep judging them for the actions of a dictator that died in the mid 1940s. The world knows they're not Nazis anymore, they don't need to prove it anymore. The German people should be able to feel proud and happy about their military force, just as many other people feel about their own countries military force. I don't think you can find any nation that has learned more about how horrific and traumatic being the imperialistic aggressor is and actually implemented that into their culture. I think realistically we have a bigger risk of the next Hitler spawning out of the corrupt depths of USA, than in Germany if I'm going to be completely honest. On one hand it's sad that all these resources are now being diverted towards the military instead of education, healthcare and welfare. But on the other hand you also have to be realistic, and the world has now become a different place and Europe needs to be able to protect themselves without relying so much on USA. Also Russia has turned into a complete mess of a warmongering nation led by a tyrannical dictator so it would be insane not to feel the need to protect oneself. I feel especially bad for the poor countries in the world, cause they will be hit by far the hardest (except for Ukraine, and maybe even Russia) by this horrible conflict, the sanctions and also the subsequent heavily increased military spending is gonna spread like ripples in the sea. This is a very tragic year, I'm just afraid it will get way worse before it gets any better.

But we also like our healthcare and social security net in Germany

Yea our engineering so great, it takes 20 years to build a single airport. If you take 20 years to develop something that takes others 5, it's a lot less impressive.

@@mcmarkmarkson7115 thats bureaucracy for you

@@mcmarkmarkson7115 got nothing to do with engineering but with politics. Instead of giving the project to a huge company, they employed over 100 little ones from the region. None of them worked together and basically everyone did their own thing. Central coordination was the problem

Yeah, I saw one that same year as well. They had been promising the ambulance version for so long I stopped believing it would ever be introduced, same with the CV90. Then in '09 when we were doing simulation medical training as prep for deployment, there was a Boxer to train with. I left the army in '11 and to my knowledge at that point there were no Boxers delivered to any of the combat units yet, that year there were also massive budget cuts in defense spending and I stopped believing it would be introduced al together, they did come through on the new rifle issues for my unit, which surprised me because it was clear with that budget cuts that the unit would be disbanded. This year a similar unit has been raised again, with the same capabilities/gear.. so go figure. The politics around defense have been messy to the point of being moronic, hampering the attempts at modernization. I am glad the army got their new gear and capabilities, my hope is that the politicians will wise up to the current geopolitical situation, their inaction and downright counterproductive policies could end up getting a lot of good upstanding people killed and maimed if they don't, they might already be too late.

Ahh yes that one

If you want to think that far back, all of the modern AFVs are based on the halftrucks of WW2. Or even on old roman chariots. Its all a matter of how far back you wanna go. ;) Or you accept it as a modern tool thats meant to be mass produced and still easy to maintain while being modular to fit every mission type an AFV should be able to fullfill. Being an IFV, an AFV, a recon, a medevac etc.

That's exactly what I thought too under a certain angle.

@@TheInfidel_SlavaUA 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍

Yep. 360 vision modules for day and night.

@@blixerie9317 you have countermeasures against these systems but when it hits, likely everybody is dead inside. The driver would indeed always die, he has no chance.

@@venkmanny4100 oh ok. So the better armor of the tank wouldnt do much against it? Why would the driver always die and not the others?

@@blixerie9317 you CAN survive as a soldier sitting in the rear when you push the emergency button so the ramp falls down. As a driver you have to wait until everybody is outside, in other words: you’ll burn to death. There is actually an emergency exit above the drivers seat, but you have to turn it up by hand and that takes you more than 5min, more like 8. They might’ve changed that as I drove an early version Boxer.

@@blixerie9317 the armor is good against rocket launchers like rpgs which hit you straight and not from above. It’s the front shape that makes the rocket bounce off.

First Tests with 8-Wheelers started already in 1934 and the "Sonder-Kfz 231, 232 and 263" among others as "Heavy Recon Version" was already in action by 1939 and in uninterrupted use by german troops throughout the entire WW2...on all fronts. Further Models were developped throughout the war including a version with a 7.5cm Assault-Gun cannon. A slightly smaller and lighter 6-wheeler version followed the 8-wheeler, which was originally based on a 10-wheeler design from 1932. 6- and 8-wheelers were built in large numbers during WW2 and the designs have been taken over by many armies over the past decades. So, in a nutshell : Don't worry. The thing will do what it's designed for.

It's an APC, so, basically a mobile home, if a bit cramped.

These are two different type of vehicles😂 both with pros and cons

This is much bigger / heavier than the Stryker, something like double the weight. So much better protection and weapons options but harder to transport

Those are ancient. The modern equivalent is Patria AMV XP, which doesn't pale in comparison to the Boxer.

@@gerat6534 Because tanks have been useless since ww 2 ended. When you have air power and infantry with anti tank weapon...Tanks are only used to subsidize the military profits. Lots of jobs there. And it's good propaganda to show your own civ that you have modern tanks, even if they are useless.

@@mcmarkmarkson7115 you may have a point there. Nowdays missiles are like a headache for the tanks. If we were in an zombie apocalypse it would be another tale

Not the Germans fault that Afghanistan can’t build bridges and roads.

The German Boxers are APCs, but with different modules the Boxers can be IFVs. Germany uses Pumas as IFVs, thus the Boxers stick to the APC job.

Why not? It's basically a copy of the Stryker. This is nothing new as the US has had them for 20 years now. You can switch the modules from one to another in short time

makes me think of the G36 rifle.... that one is modular as heck too (normal variant, long variant, short variant , ultrashort, belt/box fed machinegun, light DMR.....)
