Probably no advantage over the Bradley...its supposed to replace the M113. The M113 has lots of variants, and I assume ‘multi-purpose’ means this new vehicle will come in a lot of different variants as well...command centers, ambulance, etc...but not a fighting vehicle.

Col. Robert Laurel Smith: In summation, what you have before you is...

Sgt. Fanning: A troop transport that can’t carry troops, a reconnaissance vehicle that’s too conspicuous to do reconnaissance...

Lt. Colonel James Burton: And a quasi-tank that has less armor than a snow-blower, but carries enough ammo to take out half of D.C. THIS is what we’re building?
