When did Algeria get a boxer?
Algeria has been making them for 10 years now, if i’m not mistaken
Are you sure it wasn’t just tested? I haven’t seen any information of Algeria operating them other than testing back in like 2019-2021.
Edit: There was an article stating there were some manufacturing but there’s nothing else beyond these:
If you have other articles, I’m pretty curious about this because Germany is pretty difficult in exporting production of its vehicles. I know there’s more country’s that build them as well but they require licensing too through Germany due to technology transfer.
Further Edit: I see Rheinmetall Algeria has a plant as well when manufacturing Fuchs and Boxers. Interesting lol, I didn’t know that

There was a test model ordered from Germany, but then some were assembled at the factory where the Fuchs are made
Apart from that, I have no information about it since I’m not really informed about the Algerian boxers… And its generally very difficult, if not impossible, to obtain details about military gear in Algeria
Yes, the Ain Smara factory

That’s valid, it’s just weird because it looks like there were potentially some big orders and I’m surprised we haven’t seen any during parades and such unless the plant is used to build them and export then on behalf of Rheinmetall for the time being. Maybe Algeria held off on production for now? Idk.
That’s pretty cool, the more you know.

There are many deployed systems that we usually don’t see during the parades tbh, for example the S-400, the Vityaz, SR-5… But I personally believe that there isnt a large number of Algerian Boxers too yes. Otherwise we would probably have already seen a large number of them rolling around, the high command generally likes to flex IFVs during parades.
There was only one parade that I know of where it was seen, at the end of January 2018. (picture below)

maybe T-64AV and T-72AV can be implemented as modifications for existing vehicles
the T-64MV is also interesting since it replaced the 5TDF with V46 engine
Lot of deadweight for not a lot of real benefit
Separate T-72AV would probably get a bit of use as a backup to the T-72A, but not really as a mod.

It’s a 2S38 w/ Ataka missiles on a way better platform with hydraulic suspension (if not removed from original BMP-3 chassis). It eliminates the two biggest issues with the 2S38- Lack of depression and lack of penetration against MBTs frontally.
Threw in a stock image of Spain + German flag to sweeten the deal :sob:
If a Spanish EV-A8B was going to come to the game, it’d *likely come to Italy as an analogue to the AV-8B (NA) / Harrier T.10 premium. They love spreading near-identical Harrier platforms (AV-8A / GR.1 / AV-8S) as premiums and Italy already have the AV-8B+ (similar to the US, and better than the FA.2)

Don’t think the USSR would mind honestly, considering it has some of the largest Rank 1-5s in the game already (in terms of Ground)

It would be hilarious and awesome to see slat armor installed onto these lol. M3 is a solid tank.
