Bradley Eats an ATGM and the Crew Survives

Reconnaissance drone footage recorded and released by Russian sources shows a Ukrainian operated Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle face tanking an unknown anti-tank guided missile. While the Bradley does appear to be disabled in the attack, the crew comes piling out of the back of the vehicle with their weapons up. The crew then immediately establishes a hasty perimeter and begins to beat feet back in the direction of their own friendly lines.


While this video may inherently seem like a win for Russian forces, as they were able to get the crew to abandon the expensive piece of armor, the vehicle did one of its core functions flawlessly, and that's safeguarding the crew and enabling them to stay in the fight in the event of a strike exactly like this one.
