Why 410 Fenneks? As I understand it, they will equip only one regiment of two squadrons? Are 350+ needed for warstock?

Does it look likely that more CV90s will be ordered or will it be a wheeled chassis if BOXER doesnt work out?

Does the army have any requirements for an APV?

and finally...

Will all 57 PzH 2000's enter service, or just 40?

Thanks in advance...bit odd I know...but the curiosity is killing me.

A bit late reaction, but better late than never.

410 Fenneks are ordered. The most for reconnaissance duties. The Fenneks will also be equipped wit medium range AT missiles and forward artillery/air controllers variant
When i am correct the Fenneks will eauippe the 2 mechanised brigades but also air assault brigade and the marines

Boxer-programme is stil scheduled voor 200 vehicles. These will operatie alongside the CV9035 and Fenneks
