Recently, an M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle belonging to the 47th Separate Mechanized Brigade of the Ukrainian Army fired at a Russian T-90M main tank with its main weapon 25 mm cannon on the front line, and finally successfully hit it. Injuring the T-90M caused an explosion, and related images were widely circulated on social networking sites.
When the crew of the vehicle was interviewed by Ukrainian media, the gunner code-named “Serhiy” said that he had just returned to Ukraine from Bradley training in Germany in December 2023. He and his commander, The drivers were only on duty together for the second time. Their main task was to protect the infantry in the trenches from being attacked by Russian armored vehicles.
Encountering the most advanced T-90M main tank in the Russian army, equipped with a 125 mm main gun and thick armor, compared to the Bradley infantry fighting vehicle with only a 25 mm machine gun, Sergey said that he now discovered that the T-90M – 90M was “really scary” when it showed up on his monitor.
Sergey said that another M2 tried to engage the T-90M before but failed, so for the sake of the brothers in the trench, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue the battle.
“I hit almost all the 25 mm armor-piercing bullets on that tank at the moment,” Sergey said. It didn’t have much effect at first, but when the battle started, his memories of playing video games suddenly came back to him. Well up.
Many video games that emphasize authenticity will add the actual weaknesses of armored vehicles, such as when using anti-armor weapons, which armored vehicle should be aimed at which position, or what type of ammunition should be used, etc., so that players can successfully kill them.
Sergey said that when he discovered that the armor-piercing bullets were ineffective, he suddenly thought of his experience in video games, quickly switched to high-explosive bullets and aimed at the T-90M’s sighting equipment. As a result, he successfully damaged the tank and even caused the enemy to The crew members were injured or unconscious, because it can be seen in the video that following the explosion of the T-90M, the turret began to rotate uncontrollably. It should be caused by the unconscious crew members in the vehicle pressing the turret control lever.
Sergey greatly praised the performance of the M2 Bradley, believing that their armored vehicles successfully blocked the Russian attack, and believed that they would be more experienced in dealing with enemy tanks in the future.
