Mobile Sniper is the ongoing event in War Thunder, where you can get the German Boxer MGS light tank. This one comes after the Persian Tomcat event that took place in August 2024. This is also the second major ground vehicle event, after Call of the Dragon from earlier this year where you could get the Russian experimental Object 292. The German Boxer MGS is a modification on the Vilkas IFV as it gets a new turret with a 105 mm cannon.
