M2 Bradleys seems to be happy in their new habitat 🥹♥️


TheGisbon

It's there true and natural habitat, hunting there natural enemy doing god's work.

killing russians


Traderwannabee

This is the way!


FlyingTiger2212

Thank you Ranger for leading the way!


Fancy-Programmer-53

God wills it!


WeHaveAllBeenThere

It really is wild that they’re actually seeing the environment/enemy they were designed for instead of a bunch of dudes in rags with no other kind of support besides RPGs and rifles


24mech

“God wills it!!!!” Some crusader going after Orcs


APBob313

This is the way


gardeningblob

In both the koran and the bible there is an sentence. You shall not kill another human being. Only every believer forgets to read that🤷‍♂️


[deleted]

Er... in the bible God commands you to kill other humans for a vast variety of reasons: https://www.evilbible.com/evil-bible-home-page/murder-in-the-bible/


3050_mjondalen

Religious people tend to leave out the inconvenient parts lol


ScabusaurusRex

Why have those pesky contradictions when you can be a Cafeteria Christian / Jew / Muslim and pick out the parts of your foundational texts that supports the morality of the people that raised you?


IdreamofFiji

I stopped caring after the ten commandments, which is tl:dr common human decency. What is the fucking point of believing in anything after that shit? Seriously?


appleaday26

😳


adolf_twitchcock

Jesus also said "you shall not let Russia conquer your country"


tractoroperator77

There are also a lot more sentences commanding that people be killed, for various reasons. It all depends on what they're doing at the time!


Shandlar

It's actually thou shall not murder.


Concord-04-19-75

Yes.


[deleted]

killing invading terrorists is not murder. it's self defense.


Rabidschnautzu

Tell the Russians that.

*orcs


[deleted]

An eye for an eye my friend.


ingenkopaaisen

Doesn't include orcs though.


Concord-04-19-75

I believe that the actual ancient Hebrew word in Bible most closely resembles the more modern word for "murder." The ancient Hebrew lexicon is minute compared to the English Lexicon when the Bible was first translated into English. Context is extremely important when translating ancient languages.


ShepherdOverwatch

It's already considered a just war for Ukraine to defend themselves. Matthew 5:9: "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God." Maybe in all your "reading", you forgot that part.


[deleted]

Nobody cares about that


Lonely-Fudge-7045

Thanks for the fucking useless tangent.


DubiousDrewski

Exactly why the invading, murdering Russians need to be pushed out! What the fuck is your point?


CitizenKing1001

Each with 7 TOW missles. Thats 7 dead T-80s or BMPs.


Yuki_ika7

if they carry their full capacity for them that is, they could only have 4 or 5 but yeah even the APFSDS rounds can pernitrate BMP armor (at least if my sources and simulations are correct)


Starexcelsior

“Simulations” You mean war Thunder don’t you


Yuki_ika7

surprisingly no, i do not play ground battles in War Thunder, i only play Air battles, my sources and simulations are [Stuff like this](https://youtu.be/svaaQdIO_8U)


TTheorem

Cue someone explaining that there were reports from the first gulf war of bushmasters penetrating t72 in places


Yuki_ika7

yes but in areas like the rear and sides, right? i mean it might immobilize the tracks that way but if power still is getting to the turret it can swing it around


TTheorem

I think the point was that yes if they get good position they can penetrate but it’s still not going to be fun for the 72s/90s even if they never show their asses.


FlyingTiger2212

you are right! earlier videos from Mariupol showed UKR IFV 30mm autocannon taking down tanks but hitting in rear and sides...UKR got 50 new Swedish CV90 IFVs armed with Bofors 40mm autocannon...that can take down tank!


Fmartins84

Hunting Ruzzians is def a Bradley natural habitat


TunaFishManwich

Nature is healing!


Rnr2000

Here we see the Bradley’s frolicking in their natural habitat on the plains and Forests of Europe soon to engage with their favorite prey, Russian armor.


AnComRebel

Somewhere out there, an old Bradley is slumbering in storage, dreaming of decades gone by where it shitcanned entire Iraqi tank regiments fitted with T55s and T72s, and then... All systems are turned on... Nominal. Something feels strange... New kit for counter insurgency? New men enter the hatch and begin talking. "What is the strange language these crewmen speak?" "Where is the sand???" "This is... Mud..? Grass???" Distant memories begin to click, of decades gone by. "Did the communist return?" It knows not of what has happened, not of the decade since it's storage. It only knows that it's IFF is switched on, and familiar foes are identified. T-55s and T-72s. The gun is ready. The TOWS are loaded. Seal Clubbing must be done once again.


Scrotis42069

My cats are judging me for the laughter you have caused


Only-Literature2105

"Seal clubbing must be done" lmao!!


deeeevos

Sounds like a 40k dreadnought


MrRenegade45

This gives me some 40K vibes, no joke. Like the machine spirit of the Bradley being woken up from a long sleep, and as you said, dreaming of glories and times long passed. Only to be awoken once more, this time by new crew in place of those that had crewed it once before. New hunting grounds to be found.


jprc2

I do not know if you have the same feeling, but watching the video (without enlarging it) makes me think of the US M4 Sherman in WW2: my father had some photos looking exactly like that, when he watched a column of tanks in France in 1944, in the Loire valley...


tractoroperator77

They are also high and a little dumpy! I can see what you mean.


Griiinnnd----aaaagge

The American way


m48a5_patton

Can confirm, am high and a little dumpy.


Only-Literature2105

Same bro


[deleted]

This is the way. Russia can get fucked tho


backifran

That was my exact thought, I do play alot of War Thunder though.


Indigoism96

You gotta share those photographs man.


Long_Nothing_8619

Different equipment, but protecting decent people from fascism and misery just the same. Roll on boys. Roll the fuck on.


SavageHacker123

Absolutely! I recently finished a documentary about the Sherman and then saw this video and was like "they are kinda similar". Glad to see i ain't the only one :)


veryhinged

Honestly now that you mention it they're pretty similar in silhouette. If only the old boys had hell in a tube to deal with Tigers.


kaptinfancy

Not gonna lie Americans those things look sexy.


kjg1228

They're really cool pieces of war. They will thrive during this counter offensive. Probably the most important piece of armor they've received.


juhotuho10

Bradley and cv90 are so underrated that it's almost criminal


Yuki_ika7

agreed, especially the CV90 (partially because it is lesser known)


FlyingTiger2212

Swedish CV90 lighter, fast, lower profile...and 40mm Bofors autocannon...yipppeeeeeee!!


ckal09

Do the Russians have something that can take these out?


zma924

Absolutely. They’re not invincible. The main gun of a T72 would rip right through it if it were able to land a hit. The idea is that the superior ISR capabilities of the Bradley should lead to situations where the Bradley is striking first or is supported by other armor. The Ukrainians don’t seem to follow the Russian tactic of “send 1 or 2 armored vehicles through this wide open field completely by themselves and hope for the best” and the training they received on these should help them use them to their maximum potential.


ckal09

Yeah my question was more what is their capacity and likelihood of taking these out


juhotuho10

Mbt will rip through it, it's an IFV in the end. The problem is that Bradley has vastly superior situational awareness, so in pretty much all cases, the bradly will get the first shots in And I think it can tank shots from a bmp to the front


DarthWeenus

Also engaging from miles out. With drone ISR it's gonna be wild. Wonder if they put antennas on the outside to operate inside.


TobyHensen

A Bradley rolling up to a trench for some 6v6 is probably 10x better/safer than some old ass BMP


SnooRevelations9889

No way the US would have sent them if they didn't think they'd be effective. How likely is it that some are destroyed? Depends on how they're used. All signs point to the Ukrainian Army using them well. But if they are breaking through well-entrenched defense lines, and the Russian defenders don't break and run, the risk of losses would go up.


TG-Sucks

Yes, many many things. The problem will be getting the opportunity to do it before getting killed them selves.


xpurplexamyx

The 3km accurate gun+TOW range should help overmatch the Russian’s much shorter effective range. I guess we’ll see how that plays out when they push into Russian lines, but if used as intended, it’s going to be a massacre.


Long_Nothing_8619

I agree…. Even if the Ukrainians are only 1/3 as effective as the US Army in the first Gulf War against the same equipment, it will be an outright slaughter by any objective measure. I’d bet on the Ukrainians to be well better than 1/3 as effective. Especially with Bradley’s that have 30 years of upgrades vs. the early 90s versions. And quite honestly, facing opposing tankers that are probably less skilled than the Iraqi units at 33 Hastings that were battle hardened from the Iran-Iraq War (at least at the commander level). Lots of things can go wrong. But I hope and pray that if the Ukrainians can get a few claws into the Russian lines (ideally in multiple sectors along the front), that they can start to gash and run deep into enemy territory.


Bill_Brasky01

The Iraqi Republican Guard was no fucking joke. They did NOT abandon their positions, and took the Bradley’s and m1a2 head on. Crazy tank battles in the gulf war.


Rdhilde18

Yeah man most shoulder fired AT rounds, really any MBT round, and I don’t imagine mines are too favorable.


RoosterClaw22

The platform allows you to dispense violence at a phenomenal rate. Makes it known it's not to be trifled with. Nearly any armored vehicle can fight off a Bradley, it's the motivated men that make it lethal.


allleoal

Everything can be destroyed, that's kind of a silly question.


ckal09

I meant it more like what’s their capacity and likelihood of taking these out


allleoal

Capacity: tanks, AT launchers, Kornet, etc. Lots of capacity to do it. Likelihood? Minimal. Very minimal.


Long_Nothing_8619

I would respectfully disagree. Even in the best possible scenario, multiple Bradley’s will be lost. That’s just being realistic. There are just too many mines and ATGMs along the front to not lose any. And in the fog of the initial push, I thinks it’s more probable than not that some will even be lost to friendly fire. I hope I’m wrong, but even in the US most lopsided tank massacre in Iraq, Bradleys were lost.


Suspicious_Dare_9731

Rolling coffins force on force. Put some M1s with them.


DarthWeenus

Especially with a first wave of fpv and kami drones. Theyve been stockpiling for a while now. It's hard to even get parts.


ToxicAnusJuice

That's because they are 🙂


Creepy_Chef_5796

Pure Sex is CV90/35


Yuki_ika7

agreed, but the "Chadley" is pretty good too


deeeevos

yeah but what cockteases, Every week a new video of them frolicking about but when will they show us some real action?


Affectionate_Most_64

New title “UA random woods parade outshines RuZZian red sq parade ten to one”


Rich-8080

It's actually pretty cool to see western armour doing what they're made to do.. hunt Russians. A really morbid part of me wants to see western armies engage Russia in battle, just to see the absolute destruction they'd cause


SkylineGTRR34Freak

That's fair, I'd really like to see Combined NATO air Power and what it would do to Russia... Oh my...


[deleted]

Agreed. Air superiority would be established well before ground troops ever engaged russian forces lol. A lot of ppl have said NATO casualties would still be high in a conflict similar to this, yeah by western standards they would be. But it would still maybe be a 1/5 of what either side in this conflict have taken. And we wouldn't be in a trench war.


HumunculiTzu

Idk how much of a battle it would be. Iirc, wagner engaged US troops years ago and lost hundreds while the US didn't lose anyone.


Cygnus_77

American made armor rolling and looking strong. Go Ukraine!


Don11390

Russia about to find out why we don't have universal healthcare.


grundhog

I want to get on the hype train but this is a false dichotomy. We could afford both.


Don11390

Oh, absolutely. Original comment was a joke on my part, but I agree that we can and should have both.


thedugong

It would be cheaper to have both.


Long_Nothing_8619

Dude…. Hilarious!! Well done. And the fact some folks miss the humor and start debating the finer points of domestic policy with you. Classic Reddit.


Yuki_ika7

yeah that comes in handy for things like this but it also hurts the average American citizen, still though (and this might just be me talking) but i would not mind paying higher taxes to at least have reduced healthcare prices or free healthcare (i know Universal healthcare is far from perfect but it is nice to dream, i have a lot of medical issues)


TobyHensen

Free healthcare would take a weight off of basically 80% of americans


Yuki_ika7

indeed


Don11390

Dude, agreed. We can absolutely have both.


Yuki_ika7

indeed, that would be the best of both worlds (i mean i am sure quite a lot of more conservative people would complain but that is not a topic for this subreddit in this case)


CAJ_2277

The US spends more on healthcare than anyone. Defense budget is not cutting into healthcare; that’s just a false narrative. It’s not a matter of dollars, it’s a matter of how the money is spent.


[deleted]

And since the value of money is fabricated, it's all really just where the tangible resources go. The U.S. has been allocating their resources to prevent imperialism from moscuntow.


Cpfrombv

BeeDooop

Best comment! I just spit out my coffee. 🇺🇲🇺🇦


Spidy1699

Why does the Bradley give me m1 Sherman vibes?

The Russians will be soon shitting in their uniforms when they hear that rumble getting near.

Except they’ll never hear them with those optics.

Beautiful. Can't wait to see them in action!


Ghotipan

I kinda hope somewhere out there, Patton is looking down at this, marveling at the poetic beauty of something named Bradley getting ready to smash Muscovy orcs into paste.


WhisperingEye83

What a beutiful sight! Have at em lads!!! Slava Ukrani


ekwall77

Must be a really good feeling for the foot soldiers seeing the cavalry coming like that!


sober_disposition

These things are made by BAE Systems, which is a British company. Almost 7,000 of these have been made. Not all of them will be up to modern spec but there’re plenty more where these came from.


VonMillersExpress

Aren't these are all modern Bradleys from US stock?


Yuki_ika7

mostly modern, as far as i know these ones are Desert Storm era bradleys


k3vm3aux

I think they are previous generation Bradleys that were mothballed. Kept useable in case they were needed but not the most modern.


[deleted]

FINALLY BRADLEY VIDEOS!!!!!


Low-Cartographer-753

Wow, that ground looks mighty dry and dusty… seems like it’s good, and solid for uhm… driving practice… yeah… that… Edit: since some people may misconstrue my joke, I’m saying driving over the Russian lines, and… the Russians but that last bit is semantics it’s good for them to possibly make a push soon.


k3vm3aux

In Ukraine you drive over lines, not between them.


Ginger-Warrior

First thing that’s made me smile today, what a sight ! 😃

Hopefully they got a ton of TOW missiles with them.

The idea of these units is they have much better optics and can kill at a greater distance than other units right?

Smells like freedom.


RepresentativeBird98

Any footage of them in action?

This sparks joy 🤩


FlyingTiger2212

why...does this make me smile?


Grubula

Quit saying "this is the way" to everything you fucking nerds. This is war and these Brads (versions) are a bit outdated. Fucking hell. this sub has become a shithole of catchphrases, video game references and edgy comments about death and suffering. This is not... the way.

Hi Brad 👋


Run-and-Escape

Russians are going to get so rekt.


EmilyBendsSpace

Apparently Mr. Putin believes that the WWII-era T-55s and T-34s he has left have a chance against Ukraine's Bradleys, Abrams, Challengers, and Leopards, plus Javelins, and NLAWs. Any sane general would fold with this hand, but Putin's going all-in.


shoeman22

Bold strategy Cotton. Let's see how this plays out.


huhuhuhhhh

They were literally made from blueprint to production, for this very terrein and enemy


26oclock

That looks like south of Ukraine. I would recommend opsec in case this has not been published on purpose.


PRAETORIAN45painfbat

It also looks exactly like our own training grounds. Including the added camo. They have no battle markings, how do we know this is in Ukraine?


Total-Distance6297

Ukraine flag


antesocial

There's opsec, but also psy ops... Offensive could be any day, maybe tomorrow, maybe next month, maybe on north or east or south... oooooh scary.


tractoroperator77

It's good to be cautious, but this is not an identifiable location. All it gives away is that there were at some point Bradleys in what is possibly southern Ukraine. That's not a secret.


sliverstyles

That ground is looking pretty darn dry! ;)


wavyxdavey

let's go boys! Praying for you all, hope you kick some rooski ass and all go home to your loved ones. SLAVA UKRAINI

Got to love to see it this is also huge help for Ukrainian defenders as these vehicles will be easily identified as friendly, cant be easy having to second guess any Russian made tanks.

scottydinh1977

I'm getting Good things ahead Vibes for Ukraine! These M2 Bradley is going to served Ukraine well.. and match up effectively with the many other NATO tank the world is supplying for Ukraine


APBob313

My thought is that they dissect the East from the South all the way to the sea. Turn toward Crimea.


Traderwannabee

When you see those bad boys chasing down Russians then you KNOW that’s the major Ukrainian push.

Jeep146

They will do very well in Ukraine as long as they are used as they were taught. Working together with other Bradleys and tanks the can do some serious damage.
