Timmy Carl The cross on German equipment today is called Maltese cross, different from the Balkan cross in WW2. It predates the Nazis by hundreds if not thousands if years.
German engineering thinking ahead. During my time on Leopards (aussie) engine change was 30 minutes and everything worked. Australia made the correct choice.
Its not like they gonna access it everyday anyway, probably won't even bother the bolt for regular maintenance. Also, this is military vehicles, why would mud and sand worries them, you could just wash them
Not sure if its actually true OR if it also applies to the Boxer but I was recently informed that the Leopard 2 MBT has its camo pattern sprayed on by a robot ( my guess beeing the robot doing the rough work and a human doing the nits and bits ) - Hence the reason why all of them look the same and why these modules would also match with their patterns.
Nov. 24, 2019----Thanks for an interesting video, but it would of been a lot more interesting showing how this is done in the field and using what equipment is available. For example, can a LAV-25, Stryker or Grizzly equipped with a crane do this? And if so, does it take more than one? Is the 2nd unit shown fully loaded with ammo, etc. or not? Got back into modeling, but going for 1/35th scale zombie/apocalypse dioramas. Checked Ebay, finding the ambulance and MRAV versions are available. Imagine one of these trying to travel down some street in Berlin while being swarmed by zombies or some sort of taxi in the future.
you can even do with without a crane. there are legs that can be attached to the module then the boxer drives out and drives right under the next module.

Bottles of higher strength and energy already sublimated through emotions at a concert and you have a chance to conquer the hall much more intensely if you are careless before this business
As long as they can loose the Modul through the bolts it will be no problem, the carrier will still be usable. Even if the carrier gets damaged they could easily revive the Modul.
Seriously though, I reckon I could design some really great drop on modules for this vehicle to support all sorts of different tasks by the various Corps.
Smart concept, but is it anymore than just a smart concept? Thinking about practical logistics in a combat zone, 2 or more modules for every Boxer, who is going to carry them along to when the mission changes, and when the boxers get blown up mine/IED/RPG etc, and you cant replace the vehicles fast enough wont you just end up with a large surplus of modules. taking up valuable space at the supply depot/area/FCSSA etc. i like the idea for keeping the cost down pr. unit.
Enzo Canuzzi You'd still need to ship to the base, and you have a single point of failure in the main body...Just ship more vehicles to the base rather than more modules, there is more redundancy then.
The whole point is that new modules can be produced as new weapons and other systems are developed. Any nation with manufacturing capability can produce their own custom modules if necessary.
@@slappy8941 ...and don't let us forget: The modules can even operate when they're not attached to a Boxer. Just connect an external AC and power supply and you got yourself a small command pod to work from. An armored, mobile command pod
really good design. should not have made the front so (too) angled - as if to deflect 125 mm ammunition from a tank! - instead, use a less flat angle, and improve hardness of the materials up front. should opt for smaller, non-pneumatic tires; fire resistant, shot-resistant. could reduce maximum height of rear crew compartment by making seats more 'bucket-angled' - think like sports-car seats...
the frontal slope is part of the protection level against 30mm APFSDS fire. The height of th vehicle suspenson is part of the mine protection system (its an MRAP) same with the seat arrangement and crew compartnment. Decoupled hammock seating to increase survival rate when hit by an IED or mine.

Wanderer628 No, you're wrong. It already started 1981 in germany with a demonstrator from Mercedes-Benz. Pre-project research was done by germany and france since 1993, UK came in 1996, ARTEC was founded 1999, UK dropped out 2003. Alvis barely had any involvement compared to KMW or Rheinmetall. Link me the source stating the UK was lead design nation.

Alright so, first it's an Ambulance and then turned into a troop carrier with remote controlled machine gun options. So! The first one you're not allowed to fire upon ( If you respect the rules of war.) yet the second one is a troop carrier! You see the problem with this? If the troop carrier runs into short supply they can switch the ambulances into them. So aren't you basically inviting the enemy to fire upon Ambulance vehicles as well? I mean sure, it's great and all and looks amazing. But aren't you better off with dedicated ambulance vehicles instead of turning them into targets?
I don't think anyone would be foolish enough to use ambulance modules as troop carrier components. They don't do it with regular dedicated ambulances, so why would that change with modular components? Previously, there would be a fixed amount of troop carriers and a fixed amount of ambulances. Now they can adjust the numbers as per the mission requirements. Plus, I imagine the ambulance variant is full of medical gear and stretchers, do I doubt it can carry many fully equipped combat troops.
@@BoarVessel-BCEtruscanCer-xy7et Not exactly what I meant. I meant in a case of high spectrum warfare. I mean, you don't take the gun of leopard tank, turn it into a ambulance for so long and then put the gun back on without expecting it to be fired on right?
Slum Rat it’s not really any different to existing military ambulances, which tend to be repurposed transports anyway, IE Hummer, FV432, MT-LB. The ambulance component here is clearly marked as medical, as are ambulance variants of other vehicles. It’s really no different. They COULD all be converted too, as with your leopard example.
Seriously all that matters is if your enemy respects the red cross as something you don‘t shoot at or not. In Afghanistan they removed red crosses because taliban prefered to shoot at those.
Why is the boxer in the blendes allways covered in a brithish flag? I mean yes they were involved in the Research but jumped of and left it to Germany.
A'hem, that happens to be a stylised version of the Australian Flag, with the Star of Federation underneath the Union Jack and the Southern Cross to the right. They are still in the process of trying to sell this vehicle to the Australian Defence Forces.
Lucky that all future battlefields will have stunning state of the art workshops to change your vehicles between engagements....This looks like deep reserve level depot logistics trying to pose as a battlefield capability...why ship one vehicle with 4 modules when for damn near the same same volume you could ship 4 vehicles. Looks clever but needlessly over designed.
It's not ment to be shipped with more modules than bases. It's one module for every base. The advantage of the modular design is much easier and cheaper integration of other verisons. While you have to modify the hull of a Patria AMV or Piranha V as example for every single version that is in service, the Boxers base stays the same for all verisons, the only thing that's different is the module. It's not worth it if you only have one version in service, but if you take a look at the germans as example (soon to be 6+ versions) it adds up. Mission module change is indeed possible in the field, but only useful if the base has been damaged by a mine or IED: ruclips.net/video/h1iifwOhQbE/видео.html But it's still not the main purpose.
Read my comment. I just explained it. Unlike on other 8x8s which require require slight modification to the hull for every different version (height, turret ring and so on), the Boxer base is identical for every version, just the module is different. Thus, logistics, maintenance and development of new vehicles is much easier and cheaper, because they all share a common chassis.
Jonny I know, but i am pointing out that the dedicated vehicles would have equal commonality. There is no real benefit to modularity, except if you have a fleet of limited chassis, with more modules. This is how the Danish flyvefisken class OPV's work with Mission modules. The UK had commonality with all of its vehicles like Spartan/Scimitar/Scorpion without the need of modularity. So its arguably a gimmick, unless you are buying 10,000's and want to pull them out of deep-storage depots and replace / rotate frontline vehicles for overhaul. The LEOPARD 2 has an excellent quick change power pack, but its not modular. Its a nice idea but given the additional expense, just have dedicated vehicles.
There is benefit to it, but only above a certain amount of different versions. You really want 20 dedicated vehicles? That's gonna be a lot more expensive than just 20 different mission modules on a common base. Just look at how many modules ARTEC is pumping out and comapre it to how few versions Patria is getting out with their Armored 'Modular' Vehicle. And this wouldn't even be possible: www.military-today.com/artillery/boxer_rch155.htm
Jonny No I'm clearly not explaining my position well... Lets say you have 6 variants, so 6 variant dedicated (non-modular) and 6 identical variants (modular). There is no advantage if you have 1 of each, you will have 6 dedicated vehicles, or 6 variants modular. Unless you bring more modular parts to theatre in the form of multiple modules or multiple drive units, there is no inherent advantage because for bringing those to theatre you may as well just bring multiples of the 6 dedicated variants you will have more hulls and more redudancy in theatre. Modularity makes no odds in that case, if anything they are worse due to parasitic weight. The main advantage would be individual countries could make their own mission packs on the back for specific roles. Look at the disadvantages of Modular design here. www.thinkdefence.co.uk/boxer-armoured-vehicle/vehicle-details/
Proud to be a German American but than again if they are so smart why did they shut down all those awesome nuclear power plants and decided to depend on Russian oil ? Yeah we all.know what that got us .
Great idea in a home ground environment, but once your in the field you can't interchange the modules so why not just purpose build. The only people who benefit from the modules is the manufacturer
As soon as your are in the field you dont need to change the modules? You can change them in the basecamp for the purpose of the next mission. You need medical treatment/rescue? Pick the sani boxer module You need an ifv? pick the gun module Or the manufacturer can design new modules. Like the mantis on the boxer.
Its not supposed to be changed in the field, the purpose is to reduce costs, afterall why buy 100 total boxers to cover all roles when you can dramatically decrease the amount of vehicles required by simply changing their module when time permits?
I think is more of a strategic level asset. One would anyway change modules in field, since presumably no needless modules are sent. So more "Well if we think we need that module also, let's also just send another chassis also". Rather it is more on whole national military level. Well we overall have some more modules than chassies, so should we need to tailor a deployment we can get more of X vehicles. Also I can see it being a great tool for continued development and developing new capability. Well we want a new kind of vehicle X, lets say a drone control command vehicle. Well we don't need to develop new vehicle. We already use boxers, let's just buy couple more boxer chassis from ARTEC. Also this drone stuff is kinda super secret hus hus domestic stuff and requires very special antenna setups to be integrated to the roof and so on. So we don't need to have that made by ARTEC. Just have them deliver the base and we make the module domestically with our own trusted contractors and the drone supplier to spec to mate with the Boxer. Compartmentalization. Also while developing the Command variant module, we can loan one of our existing boxers as development bed. So we don't have to have the new chassies now. Make the module on it's own base and the new chassies come when ready. Until then we loan an existing chassis as needed, when drones are deployed. So mainly the advantage is "the people who are making a new use case, don't have to care about the automotive stuff as long as they stay in the modularization spec of mating geometry, mass distribution, total mass and electronic bus. If you want to care about armouring, add armouring. If you don't care in this use case it might as well made of sheet metal and fiberglass to be cheap." Heck at cheapest one could just have a canvas covered boxer cargo truck variant. Worlds most over build and expensive cargo truck based on the base vehicle cost, but the cargo module would be cheap as hell.
@@HvV8446 yeah so in an environment like the military deployed in say Afghanistan why would you take surplus like modules you MIGHT use. The logistics to do so would be enormous

That's gonna be a lot more expensive than just 20 different mission modules on a common base. Just look at how many modules ARTEC is pumping out and comapre it to how few versions Patria is getting out with their Armored 'Modular' Vehicle. And this wouldn't even be possible: www.military-today.com/artillery/boxer_rch155.htm
Jonny No I'm clearly not explaining my position well... Lets say you have 6 variants, so 6 variant dedicated (non-modular) and 6 identical variants (modular). There is no advantage if you have 1 of each, you will have 6 dedicated vehicles, or 6 variants modular. Unless you bring more modular parts to theatre in the form of multiple modules or multiple drive units, there is no inherent advantage because for bringing those to theatre you may as well just bring multiples of the 6 dedicated variants you will have more hulls and more redudancy in theatre. Modularity makes no odds in that case, if anything they are worse due to parasitic weight. The main advantage would be individual countries could make their own mission packs on the back for specific roles.

too bad not amphibious
防衛省ももうこれ導入でええやん。
Okay now show me the carfax
Proud to be a German American but than again if they are so smart why did they shut down all those awesome nuclear power plants and decided to depend on Russian oil ? Yeah we all.know what that got us .
Great idea in a home ground environment, but once your in the field you can't interchange the modules so why not just purpose build. The only people who benefit from the modules is the manufacturer
As soon as your are in the field you dont need to change the modules? You can change them in the basecamp for the purpose of the next mission.
You need medical treatment/rescue?
Pick the sani boxer module
You need an ifv?
pick the gun module
Or the manufacturer can design new modules. Like the mantis on the boxer.
Its not supposed to be changed in the field, the purpose is to reduce costs, afterall why buy 100 total boxers to cover all roles when you can dramatically decrease the amount of vehicles required by simply changing their module when time permits?
In the field you can use recovery vehicles to swap modules if you're in a safe zone
I think is more of a strategic level asset. One would anyway change modules in field, since presumably no needless modules are sent. So more "Well if we think we need that module also, let's also just send another chassis also".
Rather it is more on whole national military level. Well we overall have some more modules than chassies, so should we need to tailor a deployment we can get more of X vehicles.
Also I can see it being a great tool for continued development and developing new capability. Well we want a new kind of vehicle X, lets say a drone control command vehicle. Well we don't need to develop new vehicle. We already use boxers, let's just buy couple more boxer chassis from ARTEC. Also this drone stuff is kinda super secret hus hus domestic stuff and requires very special antenna setups to be integrated to the roof and so on. So we don't need to have that made by ARTEC. Just have them deliver the base and we make the module domestically with our own trusted contractors and the drone supplier to spec to mate with the Boxer. Compartmentalization. Also while developing the Command variant module, we can loan one of our existing boxers as development bed. So we don't have to have the new chassies now. Make the module on it's own base and the new chassies come when ready. Until then we loan an existing chassis as needed, when drones are deployed.
So mainly the advantage is "the people who are making a new use case, don't have to care about the automotive stuff as long as they stay in the modularization spec of mating geometry, mass distribution, total mass and electronic bus. If you want to care about armouring, add armouring. If you don't care in this use case it might as well made of sheet metal and fiberglass to be cheap." Heck at cheapest one could just have a canvas covered boxer cargo truck variant. Worlds most over build and expensive cargo truck based on the base vehicle cost, but the cargo module would be cheap as hell.
@@HvV8446 yeah so in an environment like the military deployed in say Afghanistan why would you take surplus like modules you MIGHT use. The logistics to do so would be enormous
Lol how about an m777 on the back ;-)
It’s good but boxy.
Dafuq?!
