    >*Gulf War era US Bradleys have proved perhaps the most effective fighting vehicle of the war, their armour saving hundreds, if not thousands of lives, and chewing up Russian BMPs and infantry with their Bushmaster 25mm autocannon.*

    >*I met some incredibly brave crews, including Dzvinka, a 28 year old architect turned Bradley commander from Lviv.*

    >*Dzvinka’s vehicle has been hit six times by Lancets, FPVs and a mortar. She says the Bradley saved her life and the troops inside. Last hit set the vehicle ablaze and shrapnel through her arm. She was trapped in the burning vehicle and said her life flashed in front of her eyes…*

  2. Bradleys seems to be the poison for russians, yes abrams and such is good. But the numbers of bradley that can be given compared to tanks is massive and they do more harm

  3. Dear Santa, please send 500 more Bradley’s to Ukraine. Pretty pleeeeeaaaaase!

  4. It is awe-ing to see proof of concept working so much better than expected against the precise vehicles, variant and relic of the army they were designed to fight against.

    Yes they tore through Soviet export models in Iraq; but these are the vehicles the Red Army would have used against NATO.

    How right US engineers got it in the 80’s and what a clusterfuq of design Soviet kit was.

  5. I read the article and was traumatic at all levels. I do hope Ukraine can hold the lines in the near future. I hate that Biden didn’t give them like one thousand Bradley, and that will have made a bigger impact than any F16.

  6. Fun fact, the back doors on a BMP are actually fuel tanks. IQ 200 soviet engineering 

  7. It’s hard to be a Russian in Ukraine. Everyone is constantly reminding you they want you to leave. It’s relentless.

  8. Abrams are meant to spearhead the assault and exploit weaknesses. They’re not made for trench warfare. The West delayed for too long. If they would have been available within the first six months of the war Russia would have had no time to prepare defensive fortifications.
