hmm weird its gonna be hard specially taking in account the date of the info
I’m not informed enough, but the Italian army was actually discussing the possibility of buying a batch of the Panther and than produce them in house just before the armistice(July 1943).
I guess that if Germany had enough Panther to sell some to Italy, they would have at least one in Paderborn in July 1943?
Idk, what do you think?
Because they don’t specify the exact day of the testing, so it could be anytime between May 1943 and July 1943.
turret looks cool like a mini m48 turret =)
Now lets see sky crew work on it in the sky.

The Schwere Waffenträger Infanterie, first pre production vehicle is expected this year and the final version next year.
As a side note, they are looking into upgrading it later with a hard kill APS, something that the tree currently lacks.
Edit: I can’t believe no one suggested it yet.

i would’ve done that but there is not much info about it reallistically, except the one found already on the boxer and the turret but i dont know about missile capacity, or ammo capacity
This might help:
The BW website Bundeswehr beschafft 123 neue Radpanzer
This is a thread in German but it contains very good information: x.com
Also from RM:
There is no official configuration yet but these are the known fact of the vehicle.
As of now there is very little in English but the Boxer CRV Block 2 is the basis of the sWaTrg Inf
in german its fine, i do understand german fortunately, ty that’s pretty nice ill archive it to make a suggestion later

for what i could read, ill list the features the german Boxer Schwere Waffenträger.
- Speed 80km/h(Limited, max speed being 100KM/H)
- LWS
- 30 mm autocannon
- 3rd gen thermals(commander and gunner)
- motion detection cameras
- Spike LR2 missiles
- Rosy smoke system(2x8 smoke launchers totaling 16 smoke grenades)
- IRST tracking device to allow tracking of enemy aircraft/drones
- Engine MTU-8V-199-TE20 Providing 710 HP at 2300 RPM
- max speed was sacrificed for higher acceleration
It’s basically the same Vic. Except it carries more ammo and not a dismount team
Yeah it’s hard to get infos on it especially because infos about the CRV block 2 are also quite hard to come by that’s why I’m still working on my suggestion for it
there is an issue and is that the block 2 is not even finished, its missing its armor wich its gonna be different from the standard and its gonna have aswell a hardkill aps, for now hold back the suggestion unless you want an unfinished boxer

Australia ditched the APS for now and Germanys version is based on theirs, the general data required is available. The armor has already been shown on the first vehicle:
Unless they add more, in the end you will just have to change the pictures.
The ASLS might be a neat feature to pinpoint the people that like to us their MGs against obstacles.
Yeah might just do one for an Australian Boxer CRV block 1 event Vic for Germany.
The thing is also that block 1 and block 2 use 2 different variants of the Lance turret. Block 1 has the spike launcher attached to the turret and block 2 integrated into the turret
