Well, the Bradleys weren’t set to the Ukraine to just sit at a rear base looking pretty.

The U.S. has pledged 113 Bradleys, so at most 15% is 17 Bradleys. Fewer if not all the pledged Bradleys are in country yet.

Without combined air superiority and combined arms they’re a target, nothing more.

Their largest graveyard is now called “ Bradley Square”, Zaparhozhnia sector, but “ Bradley Squares” are popping up all along the five sectors of contact….some Bradley squares are also populated by our MRAPS, Humvees, with a few Leopard 2’s “sprinkled” in for good measure.

15 Percent of U.S.-Made Bradleys Already Destroyed in Ukraine.

Wrong.

Per Onyx 06/14/23:
16 M2A2 Bradley ODS-SA: (1, destroyed) (2, destroyed) (3 and 4, destroyed) (5, destroyed) (1, 2, 3 and 4, damaged and abandoned) (5, damaged and abandoned) (6, 7 and 8, damaged and abandoned) (9, damaged and abandoned) (10, damaged and abandoned) (11, damaged and abandoned)

Only 6 are actually destroyed. The rest are either damaged or abandoned - abandoned vehicles cab later be recovered.

Maybe Zelensky can get a few from the Taliban. I recall FJB gave the Talliez a few items of military hardware.

When I read the headline I thought that 15% of all Bradleys had been destroyed, which would be quite remarkable. How many Bradleys did Brandon gift the Taliban?

This is not significant.

I am certain Ukraine would gladly sacrifice all their Bradleys, all their western tanks and associated heavy hardware along with 150,000 men to take one of the cities on the Azov coast.

This loss is minor to them and to the ultimate outcome.

15 percent of the Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicles (IFVs) sent to Ukraine by Joe Biden’s government have been destroyed.

One of these things is not like the other

Eggzelent! Going just as planned. Material losses is what it's all about. Destroy 'em all, we'll make more! The Industrial War Machine appreciates your business!

We don't care about the souls, we need to build more machines - spend more of our Fed $$ to resupply! It's the American way for the past 70 years! Why change now? /big, whipping sarcasm tag

It's all about keeping Russia out of Ukraine, right? /bs

Yay! Cheer the investors in BAE Systems. Because the ones destroyed will probably be replaced. More money for their pockets, courtesy of the American Taxpaying Peasants.

At roughly $4.35 million each (less ammo and extras) the US tax payer is once again taking it up the butt. Screw this war and screw the Ukes and the Orcs, they all deserve to burn. 🤬🤬🤬

I thought all the armor from the west was protected by the stacks of money attached to the hulls?
Maybe the shells got thru the $1 bills. Better send only $100’s.

That can’t be possible, the media says the Ukrainians have the Ruskies on the run.
