Military correspondents published a photo of an American M2 Bradley armored vehicle bogged down in Ukrainian mud
Western-made armored vehicles are increasingly faced with unpleasant features of dirt roads in Ukraine and in the territories of Donbass occupied by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. One of these shots was published in the Telegram channel "Operation Z: Russian Spring military commissars".
In the photo we see an American-made M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle. Her starboard side was heavily bogged down in impassable mud. Behind is another car, which, apparently, now cannot pass or is also bogged down.
Such cases are not uncommon. Advertised Western military equipment can not cope with the mudslide in Ukraine. What kind of counter-offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in this case can be discussed is not very clear. This is also why the Ukrainian command is forced to postpone the announced counteroffensive - heavy equipment simply will not be able to move forward.
Recall that the BMP M2 Bradley was created in the second half of the seventies of the twentieth century to gradually replace the M113 armored personnel carriers in the American army. The crew of the combat vehicle consists of three people, and six shooters can also be transported in the troop compartment.
In 1981, the BMP entered service with the American army and was used by the United States in almost all armed conflicts in which Washington took part in the late XNUMXth and early XNUMXst centuries.
After the start of a special military operation of the RF Armed Forces in Ukraine, the United States began deliveries of infantry fighting vehicles of this type to Ukrainian formations. Kiev strongly counts on such military equipment, however, as recent events on the line of contact show, American armored vehicles do not help out the militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine much.
