The fourth German BOXER variant is the Driver Training Vehicle, specifically designed to train the soldiers in handling of the BOXER prior a mission deployment. All 10 contracted DTVs have been delivered to the German Army meanwhile.

July 2011 – Five APC BOXER are on their way to Afghanistan to support the German troops under the ISAF mission with its excellent level of protection, mobility and survivability.
The new APC BOXER, specifically equipped for this mission, will be deployed by one of the German training and protection battalions in the area of Mazar-e Sharif. ‘This step represents a significant increase of protection and mobility for the German soldiers in theatre’ - said Chief of Army Staff Lieutenant General Werner Freers - ‘it is a good day for our soldiers deployed in peace-missions around the world.’

May 2011 – The first BOXER (in the version of GTFz/APC) was handed over from the German BWB (Federal Agency for Defence Technology and Procurement) to the Heeresamt (Federal German Army Agency). Subsequently the vehicle was handed over by the President of the BWB, Harald Stein, to the Chief of the Heeresamt, Major General Wolf-Joachim Clauss in a ceremony at the army training centre in Letzlingen.

‘After a successful, extensive, multinational development phase this state-of-the-art, armoured, wheeled vehicle is now finally handed over to the German Army, here at the excellent training ground Letzlingen’ - said Mr. Harald Stein in his ceremonial speech.

The hand over of the BOXER GTFz (APC) was executed by purpose on the army training ground in Letzlingen, as a few months ago the Mechanized Infantry Battalion 292 started its training for the Afghanistan mission there.
