New stuff in real life

Post by panzergator »

Germans will produce tracked Boxer and that tracked chassis will also carry RCH. The traction problem of the wheeled system they have experienced has provided the impetus for the tracked system development.

See Youtube: Europe's armored units will be equipped with German tanks! Luchs2, Schakal, Leopard 2A8, and many...
