According to the portal breakingdefense.com, at AUSA 2017, held this week in Washington, BAE Systems presented a new modification of the M2 Bradley combat vehicle equipped with an air defense system.

The new “Bradley” has not yet received an official name, so it was presented at the exhibition as M2 Bradley SHORAD (Short-Range Air Defense). At the same time, in BAE Systems, the new combat vehicle is unofficially called the “MiG killer”.



BAE Systems presented a new modification of the BMN M2 Bradley


The M2 Bradley air defense system is equipped with three types of weapons at once, providing comprehensive protection against air threats.

To disable small drones the machine is equipped with an electronic jamming system. Guided missiles are designed to destroy helicopters and low-flying aircraft. The third level of defense is a 30mm cannon that fires airburst projectiles.

The M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle was commissioned by the American army back in 1981 year. According to the 2016 year, the order 10 000 BMD Bradley in various versions, and also created specialized machines based on them, transmits "Warspot".

So the BMP on the combined arms battlefield has no more problems than the MiGs, and everything else is garbage? request I wish the crews of these vehicles NEVER see the MIGs, but look at the battlefield ...

        Did the Yankees realize that they need to arm mobile platforms with something more powerful than MANPADS? smile Because they have no secrecy and cross-country ability comparable to MANPADS - and to compensate for their visibility and limitation in the choice of positions, they need a range of missiles and powerful warheads.
        However, they also saved here by taking the serial RVV as the base for missiles.
        By the way, EMNIP, before that they made an air defense system based on AMRAAM.

        It looks believable. It’s more like an Igla mobile-based air defense system, if you don’t take into account the guns. Therefore, the comparison with the Shell is probably not correct. As the last frontier of air defense, it will do.

    And what is the performance characteristics of the air defense of this BMP? I doubt that she will be able to get Mig, but he can easily hit her from high altitude with a high-precision missile ...
    I don’t think that having air defense on each BMP is good, some part can be done, but in my opinion it’s superfluous, firstly, the machine will become clearly more expensive, and secondly, this system is not always needed by BMPs, if just as an option it is the air defense machine that can and does make sense, yet its defense is much better than that of the same Shell, maybe it will really cover the front line along with the first rows of attacking units precisely during the attack ...

      But how do electronic warfare systems fall into the rear of the American army? or you expect that this air defense will be in the first line of attack. No, as it should be, any air defense will be located in the 2nd, and even in the 3rd line, in its immediate rear and from there to cover its troops.
      at first glance, this Bradley lacks a normal air defense gun, because the rate of fire from a single-barrel cannon will be insufficient to hit a fast-flying target - they can be cured by installing a 6-barreled Vulcan, and the supply of missiles is small - judging by the photo only 4. I don’t know how to heal, maybe they carry with them and the crew reloads.
