BOXER: Up Close With The Army's New Fighting Vehicle | Forces TV

Read more on this story👉 www.forces.net/news/boxer-con...
A contract worth £2.8 billion was signed earlier this month to provide the British Army with more than 500 new armoured fighting vehicles. The Boxer is an 8x8 wheeled armoured transport vehicle, designed to move troops on to the frontline. We were given the chance to look at the Boxer up close 👀.

The modular concept can be seen from two perspectives: The advantage is not only that any Boxer can now be quickly converted for a specific mission, but also that a roadworthy Boxer will always be available for a specific mission. The engine, the drive train and the chassis simply need to be maintained more frequently than a mission module.

As Europe, we should stand together and pool resources. Doing everything yourself is outdated thinking. The alliance has to have the capabilities and the interoperability it needs to be effective.

[@MrEsphoenix]

@@unlink1649 Not saying they should cut all ties or anything, but the government has allowed British industry to wilt far too much to the point we're overly dependant on others, and as has been proven time and time again, when times get tough countries will look after their own interests first. For example during covid when France blocked essential PPE and then vaccines which where owned by and destined for Britain at the boarder to keep for themselves. So it's important you can support your own backbone which can then be supplemented by your allies. It also creates much needed jobs, and income for the country.

[@zhufortheimpaler4041]

@@MrEsphoenix the british tank and AFV industry died from 1980 till 2008. the reason was, that basicly only the british ordered from them and only in small numbers. why didnt anyone else order from the UK?

well, considering all british projects for an IFV and APC have failed so far..... it does everything better than the british competitors, especcially availability. Ajax is close to scrapping due to major problems with the programm, that seem to be hard to fix. The FRES (Future Rapid Effect System) of the UK dissolved due to major problems and cost explosions plus major intransparencies. like having 3 competitor vehicle designs, of wich 2 had test vehicles delivered and the third is represented via a predecessor vehicle, because the test vehicle was not out of pre prototype design, the not presend vehicle gets chosen as winner during cpability testing etc.

The problem with "Modularized" vehicles is nobody ever actually changes the module once it's placed. You don't have a deep pool of spare modules lying around like the Thunderbird 2 hanger. So in almost every case the only time you ever need to be able to swap the module is in the factory. Modularity is a feature that looks good on the spec sheet. But if the mission calls for an ambulance, they just bring an ambulance. They've also tried the Modular concept with aircraft a lot over the years. Same thing. They configure the plane or helicopter once and only once to establish it's desired mission, and never change it again.

[@jackmountain8503]

Key word you're missing on that spec sheet of yours, Maintenance. The transport/ambulance/ect all use the same parts and mechanics for its drive compartment.

[@andrewtaylor940]

Jack Mountain Well yes. Lots of vehicle use the same chassis and share parts. That’s actually a good design feature. It’s the swappable mission payload element that is over engineering a feature that will likely never get used. And certainly never get used in the field. It’s the sort of thing that sounds sexy on the spec sheets. But it means you’ve got a couple of bolts holding the infantry compartment on, instead of just welding that sucker down for added protection. It’s pointless modularity because the only time anyone will be swapping mission modules will be down at the motor pool when they are seeking to canibalize and MacGuyver three broken down vehicles into one working one. Which they are perfectly capable of doing with non modular vehicles.

[@zhufortheimpaler4041]

@@andrewtaylor940 but the cannibalisation is easier. But also swapping out modules is relevant to modernisation etc. in the end, your army should buy enough vehicles to not need to swap modules, but at certain points in time the swapping might be neccesary.

[@zhufortheimpaler4041]

@@regregan5755 considering that Boxer is protected vs 14.5mm fire all round, 30mm fire from the front plus mine and artillery blast resistant on STANAG IV level, it has to be big. and it is not that immobile or inflexible as it seems. 15m turning circle are private SUV levels of agility and extremly good. a smaller car has around 11m. Yes it is not going to be a SMART or MINI, but it is significantly more agile than most MRAP´s on the market with higher levels of protection. And considering that i live in a city with barracks, where Boxer´s are stationed and regularly move from there to the next traininggrounds on public roads.... they really dont have problems with normal city roads or normal european towns. yes it may be too big for the roads of the historic core of some cities/Towns, but that is also a problem for more or less any AFV on the market. look at REFORGER footage. rural german towns have been demolished regularly by comparably small M113 etc. Fences, property walls, signs etc have been destroyed by that on a regular basis. but luckily, german rural historic town centers are not the regular combat zone we design our vehicles around.

I imagine that the army will buy an equal number of drive an mission modules. The issue is that if a valuable variant like a C&C or ambulance breaks down or is due for service you can swap the mission module onto a working drive train in an hour or two and get the needed variant back into service.
