the thing looks like if the turret realy starts going the whole thing will role 1-2m back or straight up turn over if its shooting to the sides.
Besides that gotta agree with sausage, i like the new turrret more then the old ones
its just to flat and boxy for me, the a3 just looks sleeker

Yeah but it’s on a boxer… It’s meant to be boxy. That’s why it looks good
nice play on words xD, but personaly i dont find the boxer boxy either xD
so i happen to have found a picture of the new skyranger 30 turret in the german boxer , it seems to have a quad stinger launcher now instead of a double launcher

We just got to pray that Gaijin fixes AHEAD cause if they don’t, these SPAA systems gonna end up like the Spike LR 2’s.

So basically the skyranger 30 can choose between using Stingers, Leichtes Wirkmittel 1800+, and Skyknight missiles, this is very versatile.

Small Anti Drone Missile, its essentially a cheap and small missile with a thermal imager seeker to be mounted in larger numbers to take out drones
skyknight is mostly a pipedream afaik… its kinda sad but so far nothing has really happened…
like honestly, how is it supposed to be 35kg? its smaller than RIM-116 and that weighs 73kg
anyways, SADM is indeed LWM1800+ but with a booster for more range i guess. think of it as a mini Javelin thats launched at air targets and with an extra booster
