  • This new Boxer anti-aircraft missile systems will be very impressive. It will be armed with four IRIS-T missile launch systems for mobile defence, six fixed antenna radar systems to detect and track air targets, and will also be equipped with a 40mm GMG (grenade-machine-gun) integrated into the turret for self-protection.

    The Grenade launcher is probably the TSWA developed for the Puma with a rate of fire of 3 RPM. It can fire 20 different types of ammunition including programmable air burst. Obviously will allow the vehicle to defend itself against infantry with RPG and even lower range ATGM. I suspect that given the radar and optoelectronic sensors the air burst round might be able to engage micro drones and Lancets defensively. The Sky-ranger with its 30mm gun is likely to be better at this.

    German should develop an updated and upgraded version of the Flakpanzer Gepard AA gun which proves effective against drones in Ukraine. Gun is preferred to missile against cheap drones. Withdrawing the Gepard from service is arguably not a wise decision. Why the German keeps upgrading the Leopard MBT for dozens of years but neglecting the Gepard?

      Germany did what most if not all other NATO countries did after end of the Cold War. Reducing air defense capabilities. Mobile force protection against air threats was anyhow a weak spot of many NATO members and German forces were relatively well equipped.
      Nowadays, gun (see SkyRanger)as well as the rocket systems on Boxer chassis shown here are developed. The Boxer is constructed as a highly modular vehicle, capable to home different modules as payload. At the same time truck-based rocket (IRIS T SLS and SLM) and gun systems ( SkyNex) for less mobile and more distant to frontline AA defense have been developed. All this will, together with modernized Patriot and new Arrow 3 systems, create a multi-layered air defense system serving highest standards and covering all threads from Mortar shells, via drones, cruise misses up to long range ballistic missiles.

      The oerlikon skyranger systems are designed for that, a radar-guided cannon, a programmable shrapnel projectile, it tears the drone apart with one shot without a direct hit... but it can also capture and neutralize a plane, helicopter, missile or cruise missile.
      Also includes missiles, but smaller than the iris-T (and a little cheaper) mistral3.
      The two systems do not necessarily have the same capabilities, but the skyranger is more effective against drones, while it is more compact and can be mounted on several types of vehicles (although the German and Danish forces ordered it on a boxer basis, and the Hungarians on a KF41 basis).

The US has a system for short range air defense that has a 30 mm canon a 7.62 machingun, and both stinger and hellfire missiles. Are you suggesting that the SHORAD system can't use all its weapons effectively?
      Or are you suggesting that Germany doesn't have the knowhow to create such a system?

    Well, against drones, IRIS-T is an overkill. They cost way more than even Javelin launch. IRIS-T missile is about 380 thousand Euros a pop. Unless of course the target they protect is of the highest importance and drone is suspected to carry a serious payload. But still, this expensive system doesn't replace Gepards, which are extremely cheap to fire in comparison. And with new programmable munitions and new optics and faster and more accurate computer aimbots, they are starting to be both very battlefield-effective and cost effective anti-air defense solutions.
