A multi-purpose armoured combat vehicle, the Boxer was developed under a cooperative programme initially started by Germany, Britain and France. Later Britain and France had to leave the project in order to focus on their own military developments. In 2001 the Netherlands joined the programme.
The German version of the vehicle is equipped with a FLW-200 remote weapon station which can be fitted either with a machine gun or a grenade launcher. The Boxer is protected with both composite and spaced armour resistant to 14.5 mm armour-defeating ammunition. The roof armour is capable of stopping artillery shell fragments and small diameter bombs.
The Boxer is also known as GTK ('Gepanzertes Transport Kraftfahrzeug' - Armoured Transport Vehicle) and MRAV (Multirole Armoured Vehicle). In Germany the vehicle entered service in 2009.

The Achzarit is a heavy armoured personnel carrier produced by the Israeli Defence Forces in 1988. Its name means "Cruel" in Hebrew and in civilian life is used to refer to a woman.
The Achzarit was built on the basis of the Soviet T-54/T-55 tank, several units of which were captured by Israeli Forces from Arabs during the Arab-Israeli wars. The turret was removed from the tank and its chassis was redesigned to make it suitable for carrying soldiers. The vehicle was equipped with a smaller, but more powerful engine and has reactive armour.
The armament of the APC consists of three 7.62mm machine guns, including one controlled by a Rafael Overhead Weapon Station. Later versions feature a bulletproof glass turret to protect the commander from small arms fire when he looks outside the vehicle. The Achzarit was deployed during Operation Rainbow in Rafah in 2004 and the Gaza War in 2008.
