Bundeswehr medium brigades take shape



Lieutenant Colonel Karlheinz Boehnke, Multi-Role Armoured Vehicle (MRAV) Boxer representative in the German Army Concept and Capabilities Development Centre, gave an update on the Bundeswehr's plans to form medium brigades on the second day of SAE Media Group's Future Armoured Vehicles Survivability (FAVS) 2023 conference held in London from 13 to 15 November.

He said the Bundeswehr would have four medium brigades, including the Franco-German Brigade and one formed with the Netherlands. The German formations will be the 21st and 41st medium brigades and along with the Franco-German Brigade will be formed by five heavy weapon carrier (HWC) and two armoured infantry fighting vehicle (AIFV) battalions, with support units including headquarters and services companies, signals companies, artillery battalions, engineer battalions, and combat service support battalions. In addition, the two German medium brigades will each have a reconnaissance company.

The brigades will be at 72-hour readiness and be equipped with Boxer AIFVs, HWCs, and Remote Controlled Howitzer (RCH) 155s, in addition to a next-generation armoured transport vehicle, possibly the 6×6 Common Armoured Vehicle System (CAVS), according to Lt Col Boehnke.

Is er eigenlijk een koepel met 30 mm en Spike beschikbaar welke geen Dak penetratie nodig heeft. Remote controled onder pantser.?

Die mogelijkheden zijn er natuurlijk wel, het simpelste voorbeeld is de EOS R400. Hoewel dit geen koepel is maar een remote weapon station is het wel de simpelste oplossing met een 30 x 113 mm (apache) kanon + 2 ATGM's. Dit hebben we ook gezien op de Boxer bij schiet proeven maar ook op de Vector.

Elbit Systems Debuts Crossbow Next Generation Turreted Mortar System at DSEI LONDON  2023.

The automatic mortar system was developed by Elbit Systems' Land under an Israel Defense Force contract and is MIL-STD-810G compliant.

The Crossbow system has a capability of shooting the first round in less than 30 seconds, has a maximum rate of ten rounds per minute with a sustained rate of fire of six rounds per minute, with a short sensor-to-shooter circle. It can fire a variety of munitions including the Iron Sting guided mortar munition providing effective range of up to 10 kilometers. No indexing loading is required for the Crossbow turret and it has the capability of 360 degree infinite pivot.

Designed for UT-120m turrets, it can be integrated onto 6X6, 8X8 wheeled platforms and tracked vehicles as well as stationary platforms. This makes Crossbow fully compatible with existing NATO ammunition requirements. The Crossbow is fitted with a computerized fire control system, a land navigation system and can be operated in a GPS denied environment.

Ik wacht nog steeds op foto's van de Boxer met 35mm kanon die eerder dit jaar op de Afsluitdijk stond te knallen... of is dat niet doorgegaan?

British Army BOXER displayed at ARMY EXPO 2023

A UK specification BOXER 8×8 Mechanised Infantry Vehicle was also on display, albeit inside a marquee with 'dramatic' lighting and assorted clutter preventing full walk-round photos being taken. However as this was our first opportunity to see a British Army version (at previous military expos it has usually been a Dutch or German spec vehicle or a pre-production prototype on show) I endeavoured to get the best shots possible. I was also given the opportunity to photograph the interior, under supervision and from one angle only, and offered the chance to go inside, but on security grounds full internal photography was understandably not possible. This is the Specialist Carrier variant, configured as a REME fitters' vehicle with demountable stowage racks and seating for three personnel in addition to the crew.

Kunnen wij die bestelling best overnemen  en ophogen naar 60 stuks bouwen in Ede voor de 13de medium brigade zware wapendrager. 35mm met spike.

Duits is duur, vooral de boxer. Patria of de turk zal het wel worden.

Ik gok de Patria, daarvan hebben ze er al 77 van besteld in 2017.

Nieuwe aanbesteding voor aanschaf 8x8 Pantserwiel voertuigen.

Modernisering van het Sloveense leger: vijf aanbiedingen voor achtwielers

.../...

Volgens onze informatie liggen er aanbiedingen op tafel voor achtwielers uit :
- Finland (Patria),
- Roemenië ( Mowag ),
- Polen ( Rosomak ),
- Turkije (Otokar)
- VS (General Dynamics).
"De aankoop zal zeker gebeuren volgens het regering-tot-overheid-systeem, dus zonder tussenpersonen", aldus de minister van Defensie.
In een zeer optimistisch scenario zou de bataljonsgevechtsgroep in 2027 klaar kunnen zijn.
