You think its for balance? I don’t see why they wouldn’t (couldn’t) have the APS on a light tank. If the machine has it why not ya know.
We have the MELLS, but we all know how that has been working for 2ish years ;)
Guess we’ll have to wait for MELLS2

No, I was just curious as to why they might do it, just thought-storming.
That’s because only Belgian or ukranian prototypes had it advertised. It wasn’t advertised for this Boxer variant, but is advertised for the Finnish/Belgian and Swedish/Belgian trialed CT-CV and XC-8 APC/turrets. This Boxer variant was only between Cockerill and KNDS. MECAR (Belgian munitions manufactorer) wasn’t involved.
But ultimately it’s Gaijin’s choice, as these modern systems are quite hard to get good info on. Generally it would make less sense to add it to the Boxer as it was never shown to use it.

The missiles I would be fine with, not like people would really use them…
NOW the APS and acoustic detection, was it shown to be on this specific version of the boxer?
IF it is, and they don’t add it, I would be upset.
IF it doesn’t utilize it, then obv I’d be okay with it not being in.
APS?
No, what we call APS in WT was not present on this model:
With the APS they mean features such as smoke grenades and smoke screens. Not the Iron fist or something similar. (although the Leopard 1A5BE one did trial it).
The acoustic detection isn’t present on 3105 turret prototypes, so that could not be added right now. Then again, that’s not a feature on any WT vehicle right now anyway.

yeah i can confirm in my investigation it had no aps whatsoever not even soft kill, at most it would have the lws

Tbf i wouldn’t be suprised if they didnt add acoustic detection as it would be a very specific system. It would probably be denied like the CV90120 Early as the auto directional smoke system was denied as they had no interest in modeling that system.

most automatic Protection systems that control smoke or turret rotation are not on Gaijin’s list of things that need additions, as these take away abilities of the players (like on the Raam Segol).
Maybe in the future.
It’s not. Cockerill uses the French Pilar V as seen on this 2nd generation CPWS turret:
Pilar V hasn’t been fitted to any C3105 turrets as of yet.

even the acoustic detection module its pretty easy to see too
My mistake, I thought they used the smaller system.
Still they should adjust the name to match as this isnt a CV90120-T model and is as such an early prototype model then. The vehicle we have in game is a very strange vehicle.
(Still holding out hope they give us the water vapor cover system lol.)

Where do they get the 815 hp for the Vilkas from?
Shouldn’t it have 720 hp just like this one?
Latest blocks of boxer have better Hp engines only earlier ones have the worse engine, in fact this one should have the better HP and the vilkas should have worse lol
Does the boxer have 2 PASEO sights? Based on the fact that such a sight on the Challenger 2 BN has an x8 zoom without the ability to switch, does this mean that there will be both sights without the ability to zoom on the release?
also spall liners in the hull when?

also PASEO should have up to 15.2

There’s different variants of PASEO. For example: France and America will be using a version with a 4k day channel which achieves an identification range of >9km. Cockerill uses some other version with a HD channel and only >3.3km identification range. This either has 3 FOVs or what is shown on that brochure.
Currently, PASEO is modelled as 1x-8x (1x zoom isn’t modelled for sights in-game). This isn’t entirely accurate but Safran is real shitty with advertising these days.
Thx gajin, i look foward to unlock this one.
Please add more german vehicels.
More boxers! More Luchs more Fuchs, how about a Fenek with 40mm GMG? Some cool fetures like low thermal profile, hard to spot on radar… Just add more German vehicels!! The decals are littel off but ok, would be cool to have some more Battalion and pltoon markings. Just a wish. Thanks.
