I don’t really think of a Bradley as a tank killer, but I guess it can be. Suspect some luck was involved.

I know we don’t see Russian victories…but seeing Russian tanks blow up diodes warm my heart.

That this isn’t a world war yet is a miracle from God.

That’s what happens when you send Ruskies to fight without their eggs and cucumbers. Putin should have listened to you. You must be eggstatic.

This shouldn’t be a surprise; the Bradley smoked a ton of old Soviet armor in both Kuwait and Iraq.

Just imagine how efficient the upcoming Bradley replacement will be...

Just commenting on the video itself, not leaping into any political fray here:

I don’t see any reaction / movement / anything from the BMPs, and the Brad is blasting them from point-blank range with its entire hull exposed- the cannon on the BMP would have no trouble penetrating the Bradley at that range at all. Looks to me like the BMPs are already disabled and/or abandoned, and the Brad crew is just making sure of it / making sure there aren’t infantry hiding inside.

As for the tank, I don’t see any sign of armor penetration, which isn’t a surprise. It looks more to me like the Bradley’s fire damaged the main gun tube, and the tank crew tried to fire a round from it, resulting in that spray of sparks. I notice the video just stops right there- we don’t get to see whether the tank is otherwise impaired. I suspect not. But taking its main cannon out of the fight is significant. And I wouldn’t want to be in an AFV trading shots with a tank in the first place. That definitely takes some balls (or panicked desperation).

The other possibilities I wonder about in the tank clip is if that spray of sparks is either a Brad round detonating after a delay, or some aspect of the active armor going off. I don’t place much stock in either though, just tossing them out there.

Finally, I see the phenomenon of unnecessarily adding music to every video ever is alive and well outside the Anglosphere of social media. And whoever thought those fake digital-artifact transitions looked “cool” or “badass” needs to be slapped.

Oh goody!! U.S. manufactured weapons destroy Russian vehicles in yet another proxy war, while U.S. politicians, their family members, and their big donors make money off taxpayer dollars via their investments the military industrial complex

Stepove is North-West of Avdiivka. They are close to surrounded.

They are repeating the Bakhmut fiasco.

Another video
Judge for yourself

https://youtu.be/7Xe9o9XM6ns?si=FLyaMbENt6uTx5kp

crazy footage of T90 withstanding 25mm fire.

Cant confirm exactly what happened yet but it seems it stood solo against 2 or 3 bradleys and FPVs while taking a trench in an opertation

Comments from video
“2 bradley + 1 kamikaze FPV drone vs. 1 solo T-90M... but still they failed to destroy the tank and the tank crews was also evacuated”

“The tank blew up 2hours later, and the crew was in anothe tank already. The 3 three bradleys was destroyed along with their crew . ( It was 3, not 2. ) the ukr trenches was also captured. 5 POW survived, out of 16”

Good shooting for the Bradley crew.

For those who don’t know, he got the drop and angle on the BMPs.

The very same could have happened to him.

this is staged. Sorry but the bmp’s don’t even move. It’s to get the US all jazzed up - it’s fakerooski
