Finally US Army Reveals M2 Bradley Replacement

[@gordonallen9095]

For the Bradley to be "obsolete" it's doing a hell of a job of taking out Russian armor for the Ukranian military......

[@Tuanesto]

All obsolete US military tech can single handedly win the next world war, so imagine the stuff they haven't made public...

[@asheshinfinite3766]

Well, Bradley is old but it's working wonders in Ukraine!

[@jaypenha5352]

Thats not surprising, since the russians have 1980’s technology with vehicles, so the bradley is that american rival to that technology. The russians havent upgraded majority of thier armored elements, so the bradley is fighting enemy vehicles that it was designed to go up against.

[@Jonasbarbury]

So. Who else will we be facing? Chinese crap?

[@thunder_chunder6491]

[@kiabtoomlauj6249]

Against largely USSR era Russian analog scrap metals --- with no modern, electronic technologies ---- loaded with powerful shells, sure. But the future requires light armored vehicles, like the German and British BAE platforms that are modular and driverless, if some dangerous missions needed them to be so. BAE and the Germans are finishing their next gen 40mm cannon ---- likely to be adopted by most NATO nations, if proven successful in the next 2-3 years ---- that is said to be up to 4 times as powerful as today's average 30mm cannons.

[@kwgm8578]

The analysis of the Brad's short-comings was also BS. It's a 1970 design and electronics weren't a thing. The size issue is about the number of fighters it holds, not cramped crew quarters. The armor was never designed for artillery or anti-tank, and it was praised as the first tracked vehicle to exceed 45 kph. Where do you get your facts?

[@danielsnook7362]

So there are no electronics at and in a car's engine block how did the Sherman's tank work how do you think car batteries work how do you think the Sherman actually operates do you think it was just purely combustion engine and mechanical where did the spark in the engine come from without electricity you can't just spontaneously make fuel combust into flame you need a spark plug. Somehow the new engines today don't generate more power. And no what he's showing is the m10 Booker not the Bradley replacement. the Griffin chassis with 105 mm turret

[@danielsnook7362]

And no the new Ifv chassis have better speed than the Bradley chassis. The Bradley replacement is more likely to use the Griffin 2 with the far better drive train and power pack look up the advanced combat engine and hybrid power pack tell me the Bradley is still going to be just fine in the future with a current engine no improvements to the drivetrain or transmission at all. The m10 Booker in other words the light tank will probably use the Griffin 3 chassis

Nothing was mentioned about the amount of the dismounted team about these vehicles. As a former Bradley dismounted crew member, I think this would be important. If no Infantry is to be transported then they don't have a replacement for the Bradley but a light tank. I know the M-10 Booker is not a tank but is an assault gun ? 🤔

[@longtabsigo]

Look at some of the Brad’s in Ukraine, they have eaten tank and anti armor rounds and spit out the crew in one piece! Cramped? The Ukrainians put 17 in one last summer! Plus another 15+ riding on top holding on. It’s old, that’s it. I can tell you that my Ukrainian friends, including a Mech Inf Bn Cdr can tell you how many hundred(s) of his soldiers are still in the fight because they were in Bradley’s vice the old BMPs.

[@gerdmeyer1601]

The Bradley is old, but the BMP´s are even older and in case of armor are BMP´s worst than the Bradley. The Bradley is an upgrade to an BMP.

[@longtabsigo]

@@gerdmeyer1601 I actually just talked with Artem, one of the reasons that they love the Bradley is because early in the war, they were hosed because they were trying to mount local counterattacks using UNARMED & UNARMORED HMMV’s! Artillery ate their lunch, then they got 113’s and then the Bradley to team up with the Abrams. They got a ton more Brad’s so they formed Hunter/Killer teams of 3-4 Brad’s doing what is essentially a drive by meets Thunder Run and they will do what I coined as counter armor Whack-a-Mole. They will have 2-3 teams per track and tons of smoke, they will run around a village and keep stopping at different t points. The drones can’t always catch exactly where teams exited because they will stop 10-15 times and let the crunchies have at the Orks. Then they just reverse the maneuver to extract them. And between the TOW’s, and man packed kit, they put a hurting. Quick war story. For whatever reason the military of the Clinton Era was enamoured with Corporate Think. So they had this wonderful idea for streamlining the logistics tail, instead of the old way when you r direct and general support maintenance units had all of the spare parts they needed, the brain test came up with “ just in time logistics” where there is nothing on the shelf and you order it and it magically appears just in time. Oh that shit didn’t work, because once again American soldiers don’t look at the freaking clock and they attacked until the bad guys are dead, however that leaves great distances between the gunfighter and, the sharpest. If you go back and look closely at the Iraq armoured units in and around back, you will see most of the T 55/54’s, some of the T62’s and all of the A PCs and IFV’s or not catastrophic kills. When you see them there are holes and scorch marks; and that is because a significant amount of the 3ID’s we’re having to fight their way up the roads. That meant that the Abrams were running low on main gun rounds and therefore they did not engage anything that was not a T72 or modified T62’s, all of the other armour, mech and wheeled vehicle kills were all done by Bradleys using their gun or from an anti-armour teams organic. Many of those soldiers were having to squeak by with only 1-2 liters of potable water! There were officers that went into Iraqi stores, threw down $40-60 and buying bottled water for their troops! They used “other” water to get chilled and used to pour down the back. Anyway back to the point. Target identification, designation, location and destruction was very carefully managed by the Sergeants and lieutenants who knew the deal, they let the tanks kill tanks and let the IFV’s kill everything else. If this wandered I’ve been up for three days.

[@mattmacpherson1033]

Great unmanned tanks, aircraft, robot troops. Did anyone watch the terminator?

[@matthewhuszarik4173]

It seems stupid to use a vehicle designed to carry men as an unmanned vehicle. How about two different vehicles and the unmanned one being significantly smaller, more deadly, better protected.

[@SeanDailey-dy8tn]

I wouldn't ax the bradley yet. I'd upgrade it. That's exactly what the Army did, and it appears to be working. The good ol M2 has a lot of fight left in it. Don't retire it yet.

[@baddriversofmoosejaw8681]

Similar to the B52. That bomber entered service in 1952, has been continually upgraded and still serving to this day. The Bradley and the M1 Abrams can be upgraded. So can the Merkava. I understand the Merkava Mk. 5 has been revealed and the Mk. 1 has been converted to the IDF's first IFV: the Namer.

[@davidbeattie4294]

I hope the US Army doesn't fall into the trap of trying to make a vehicle thats so advanced its over budget, late to production, overly complex and unreliable. The KISS principle rules on the battlefield.

[@jamesgovin5625]

[@ms.annthrope415]

So let's spend 10s of billions to develop and build another vehicle. The abradley was never designed to fight tank to tank, but to give adequate protection while chauffering troops to the front line or to be a Cavalry scout fighting vehicle to support dismounted soldiers.

[@jesterlead]

We need the M577 APC from Aliens.

[@BdogFinal14]

What really needs to change are the outdated tactics employed by the US Army. The US Army employs the Bradley like semi mobile pillboxes. Moving from static position to static position, only firing when stationary. The Ukrainians revolutionized their employ and true mobile assault vehicle. Using its speed and mobility to outmaneuver their opponents. The maximized the stability and power of the main auto cannon. Get mobility kills on MBT. Ukraine Bradley’s move too fast to wait for infantry support, to walk along side them.

[@techtonykim]

The Hanwha Redback armored vehicle offers several advantages over the German Puma (Lynx) vehicle. It provides superior protection with advanced composite armor and an active protection system (APS) that enhances defense against modern threats like ATGMs and RPGs. The Redback's mobility is optimized with a robust suspension system and powerful engine, ensuring high performance across diverse terrains. Its modular design allows for flexible mission configurations and quick upgrades. The ergonomically designed crew compartment improves crew comfort and safety. Redback’s lower maintenance costs and global logistical support offer long-term operational advantages over Puma.

[@NotThatBob]

Historically the Bradley has fought and won against tanks in real life battles. From desert storm to the Ukraine war, the Bradley has out matched many armored vehicles opposing it. Add in overly well trained operators and now you have the best the USA will have for the next decade. Bradleys are like American Marines. Don't ever go up against American Marines.

[@allenliu8820]

It certainly ain't obsolete, but is aging. Ukraine demonstrates its strength, but also weaknesses. The bradley does a great job against enemy infantry. However, I do want to see the bradley upgraded with these 3 technologies: hard kill and passive active protection system (redundancy is key), irst, small aesa radar, or passive radar for anti drone warfare (detecting drones with the naked eye is difficult especially through a periscope), and fire and forget munitions. I also want to bring back the anti air bradley (linebacker), but with certain upgrades like the addition of a radar which the linebacker lacked. The reason is because helicopters are a major threat to an armored column because helicopters have way more range and ground personnel lack the ability to detect or combat them because we haven't developed an SPAAG, heavily relying on our airforce, which means when the air force is down for whatever reason or isn't in the vicinity, bradleys are vulnerable to enemy attack. However, all these systems require a new power plant, but the bradley has a limited space and would be unable to fit all these upgrades.

The Bradley has out performed all of the tracked armor in Ukraine, that includes tanks, there is currently no armor in that war that can withstand anti tank rockets or rounds. But the Bradley has held up a lot better when hit by a anti tank rocket or round due to it's V shaped chassis , it has allowed Ukrainian troops to exit the vehicle un harmed . Russian armor regardless of type are almost always fatal to the crew, the Russians brag about their T-14 tank the Armata they have only sent two of them to Ukraine one was destroyed the first day the second was towed off and sent back to Moscow because it did not work.
