Bradley armored vehicles are capable of significantly increasing the combat capability of ground troops, as it is “essentially a light tank.”
The US government is considering the possibility of supplying Ukraine with Bradley infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs). On Thursday, December 29, Bloomberg wrote, citing sources of knowledge.
The publication states that the final decision has not yet been made.
A White House spokesman, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the US continues to communicate with Ukraine about the supplies it needs to protect itself. However, no details can be revealed.
The Bradley infantry fighting vehicle entered service with the US Army in 1981 after a long trial run since 1964.
Unlike the M113 armored personnel carriers that Kyiv has already received, the Bradleys are armed with 25mm cannon and TOW anti-tank missiles.
The BMP is designed to ensure the transportation of motorized infantry units on the battlefield, combat from a vehicle and fire support for ground forces.
Earlier, French President Emmanuel Macron said Paris had sent Crotale rocket launchers and an air defense system to Kyiv and planned to provide a new batch of weapons and ammunition early next year. Among these deliveries, Caesar self-propelled artillery mounts (ACS) are also expected.
Strack-Zimmerman reports that the United States has approved the transfer of tanks from Germany to Ukraine.
