I don't know, can you put it on a boxer?

Probably, they already have them in everything from BV110 to M113s.

There is a similar system (IRIS-T SLS on a boxer) already in development.

I don't see a radar on this. How can it fire on the move when it needs to deploy a radar to know when to fire?

I'm very interested in seeing how this compares to a stationary Patriot battery.

Edit: ah nevermind, this is the SLS variant of the Iris-T, so very short range.
