Ideally suited to any mission scenario in any climate zone
The fully stabilised, cutting-edge remote-controlled turret with state-of-the-art optical and optronic sighting devices allows the entire crew 360° all-round surveillance, detection and identification of long range targets. The airburst-capable, fully stabilised 30mm automatic cannon enables precise target engagement even when driving. Situation-specific target engagement with two separate types of ammunition at the push of a button thanks to automatic double-belt feed.

Maximum hit probability
Thanks to the fully-stabilised, 30 mm automatic cannon and the multi-role SPIKE LR light guided missile system, the BOXER RCT30 can react appropriately to an extremely wide range of threats.
Highly protected
The modern add-on protection concept and modular design, consisting of a drive module and a mission module (safety cell), offer maximum possible protection for the crew.
State-of-the-art chassis
The single-wheel suspension with its long spring travel and hydraulic end stop damper minimises stress on the crew when driving both on and off the road.
Power pack
