Rheinmetall demos Keiler Next Generation armoured breaching system - European Security & Defence

Rheinmetall demonstrated its Keiler NG armoured breaching system on 14 August 2024 in a demonstration at the Bergen military training area.

The Keiler NG, which was presented to the public for the first time at the Eurosatory 2024 trade fair in Paris in June, also has an integrated crane, which it uses to establish clearing readiness and to load and unload the Plofadder ammunition boxes.

For self-protection the Keiler NG, which has a crew of two, carries the ROSY rapid obscurant system and the Rheinmetall’s Natter 12.7 mm remotely controlled weapon station. The possibility of remote-controlled deployment of the vehicle has already been taken into account as part of the system’s concept, as has the fitting of an active protection system.

The Keiler NG is derived from the Kodiak armoured engineering vehicle (AEV), which is based on the chassis of the Leopard 2 main battle tank. Although it weighs 63 tonnes, the Keiler NG has a top speed 65 km/h, can climb 90 cm obstacles, can negotiate gradients of 60% and can cross trenches more than 2.50 m wide.

I somehow don't believe that even when they have reason for it probaly wouldn't do it. Honestly they would want to Take every Order they get and even then how should chile be able to pay for it.

And to that new Leopards? I mean even if they don't do a Leopard 1 MLU a 140 new tanks is very costly. Something they can't just buy like that with there very little budget.

There are reports originating from Russian media that a Leopard 2A6 was destroyed near Sheptukhovka in the Kursk region. Notably, it had side protection on the turret against RPGs.

Note that losses do not really constitute developments.

Haven't seen before a Leo 2 with such an RPG protective fence. If you have other pics of such a development, please post them here.
