The BOXER RCH 155 is a German 155 mm wheeled self-propelled howitzer developed by Krauss-Maffei Wegmann (KMW) and Rheinmetall for the German Army.
The initials RCH stand for "Remote Controlled Howitzer"

It uses the PzH 2000 system which is one of the most powerful conventional artillery systems currently deployed. It can fire three rounds in 9 seconds, ten rounds in 56 seconds, and can fire between 10 and 13 rounds per minute continuously, depending on the gun.

Two operators can load the 30 shells.

The maximum range of the gun is 30 km around with conventional L15A2 standard shells, about 35 km with base bleed rounds, and at least 40 km with assisted projectiles . In April 2006, an assisted shell, fired by a PzH 2000, reached a distance of 56 km.

It is cheaper than the PzH 2000 because of its wheeled chassis and also exists on an 8-wheel IVECO chassis.  


Its maximum speed on the road is 100 kilometers/hour and it has a range of 1,000 kilometers.


Its turret is mobile on 360°.
 As for the firing, the system is fully automated: its loading system and its artillery system.
