What happened to the Bradleys? That 3 round burst thing of 30mm is very effective.

I dont think we need a smaller MBT or a larger BFV. I am not liking this model.

“What happened to the Bradleys?”

I believe they’ve been retired. Not sure why, it seems stupid and wasteful to me.

“That 3 round burst thing of 30mm is very effective.”

The Bradley had a 25 mm cannon. I understand that the same 30 mm chain gun the Apache uses is going to be used with something close to the MRAP chassis.

Some NGs at an event that I was at were around the a glorified armored car (to me and I forget the designation) and I asked about the Bradley.

The ranking one said that they were being dumped into the sea for artificial reefs when dead. The others run until dead then dumped.

Sad if true.
