The Australian Army has tested its Boxer 8×8 Combat Reconnaissance Vehicles (CRVs) for counter-unmanned aircraft system (C-UAS) capability that can detect and stop or redirect a UAS.

The Boxer CRV “surveilled Objective Otter” during Exercise ‘Talisman Sabre' 2023 – held between late July and early August – as the “eyes and ears” of the 1st Australian Division, the Australian Army said in a press release on 8 August.

Brigadier Michael Say, commander of the Australian Army's 7th Brigade, said the service tested the Boxer's “target acquisition systems to shoot down UASs loitering in the sky”.

The Australian Army is procuring 211 Boxers from Rheinmetall Defence Australia (RDA) under a USD5.2 billion contract signed in 2018 as a part of the Land 400 Phase 2 programme.
