US Bradley armored fighting vehicles successfully destroy Russia's most modern tanks in Ukraine

In a snowy landscape near Stepove in eastern Ukraine, Russian and Ukrainian armored vehicles went head-to-head in what appeared to be a mismatched fight. The Business İnsider media outlet reported this.

İt is noted that in a video released by Ukraine’s defense ministry earlier this year, a Russian T-90 tank, once billed by President Vladimir Putin as the world’s best, faced off with two Ukrainian 47th Mechanized Brigade Bradley armored vehicles.

The Bradley infantry fighting vehicle, supplied to Ukraine by the US, is primarily designed to carry infantry on assaults with the firepower to engage fortified positions and lighter armored vehicles, while leaving head-on confrontations with a top tank to the Abrams tanks it would normally fight alongside, according to The Business İnsider.

The Bradley is equipped with capabilities that allow it to engage an enemy tank should a fight arise, but its light armor makes it vulnerable. The Russian T-90 should have been more than a match for the Bradley, yet the American IFV came out on top. That battlefield win speaks to the strengths of the crew and the boldness to use the Bradley in tough battles without the critical support of more powerful main battle tanks.

In the video of the engagement, the Bradleys fire rounds repeatedly into the Russian T-90 with their 25 mm chain-driven autocannons, appearing to damage the tank’s control systems. The Russian tank’s turret starts spinning, and then the tank veers off course and crashes into a tree.
