Bradley IFVs messing up Russia's invasion of Ukraine for eight minutes straight

Описание: US Bradley fighting vehicles have proven extremely effective as Ukraine battles to stop the Russian invasion of the country. Video taken by the 47th Brigade somewhere near the town of Sokil shows at least two Bradleys stopping a Russian assault. The Russians have landed troops in a tree-line belonging to the Ukrainians, and the 47th sent Bradleys to fight them back. Video shows the tree-line lighting up with fire from the Bradleys’ Bushmaster chain guns, firing high-explosive shells.
As one Bradley stops shooting the other takes up the fire, keeping the Russians suppressed as they both go in for a closer look. The 47th is the main Ukrainian brigade using the Bradleys, which featured heavily in fighting around Avdiivka. During that battle two of the vehicles were able to take out one of Russia’s best tanks, the T-90M. The Bradleys were able to blind the tank’s sensors, causing it to crash before a drone finished it off. Avdiivka was eventually captured by Russia, so the Bradleys refocused on stopping Russia’s advance to the west of the city. The armoured vehicles were used to wipe out Russian BTRs and the troops they were carrying into battle. Again, their chain guns proved lethally effective against the BMPs notoriously thin armour and against infantry. Particularly heavy fighting happened in the town of Berdychi, where the Russians were held up for weeks without moving forward. Ultimately the Russians have been making slow gains in the area, but the Bradleys have ensured it has come at a high cost. The first time the Bradleys appeared in Ukraine was during Kyiv’s counter-attack in the south last summer. They helped captured the town of Berdychi from Russia. It was hoped the vehicles would prove effective at breaking Russian lines, but they ultimately fell short of this goal. However, they undoubtedly helped save the lives of their crews while inflicting heavy losses on their enemies. #BradleyIVF #Bradley #russia #ukraine #war
