General info
Survivability and armour
The Boxer chassis is a lightly armoured hull, and as such, is susceptible to all vehicles main weapons at its BR, but is also able to be penetrated by many secondary armaments. Its large size means that rounds that penetrate it at its far ends may fail to take its limited crew count. As it is a light tank, it is weak to both chemical and solid based rounds. The lack of armour means that this tank should be played away from open plains, and instead can be used to flank or snipe from long ranges. Due to is powerful engine and light weight, the boxer can accelerate to speeds up to and exceeding 100 Km/h, making it an excellent vehicle to move to early game positions and catch enemies off guard. its reverse speed allows it to take a shot and move into cover before most vehicles can return fire, making it a good vehicle to peak and relocate.
