‘A quantum leap forward’ was the expression used by Lieutenant-Colonel Joachim Geist to describe the successful operational test of the Boxer vehicle in Australia in an article on the German Army website. The “Gruppentransportfahrzeug” (GTFz) is the Boxer version used by the German infantry, which was transported in early February 2010 to the Australian Outback, for an operational test under hot and dry and hot and humid conditions. 

At the KMW factory in Munich the first Boxer was officially presented to both Ministers of Defence of the participating nations Germany and the Netherlands.

On the occasion of their 20th meeting, the Board of Supervisors, the highest decision making body within OCCAR, approved the Integration decision for the MUSIS programme (Multi-national Space based Imaging System).

New versions of the BOXER development and series production contracts are in place.
