Ukrainian Army’s 25th Independent Airborne Brigade, Scheslau, has released footage of intensive training using the M2 Bradley infantry combat vehicle provided by the United States.
Ukrainian airborne forces showed off tactical maneuvering and combat simulations using state-of-the-art armored vehicles. These vehicles are already in use within the unitGerman BMP MurderIt is operated with the company and is highly regarded for its comfort and reliability as a “Mercedes, an infantry combat vehicle.”
According to the brigade, “Mobility, firepower and soldier protection capabilities are the three pillars that underpin Bradley’s effectiveness in modern warfare.”

M2 Bradley is considered a “all-purpose soldier” on the battlefield. Equipped with a 25mm M25 bushmaster automatic gun, it can penetrate most Russian-made armored vehicles and boasts a firing speed of up to 500 rounds/min. The advanced optical system allows you to detect targets up to 10km, while the shooting control system provides high accuracy.
The diesel engine delivers a top speed of 66 km/h, and is also highly mobile on rough roads. It also has excellent defense performance, surpassing the Russian BMP-3 with its double-layered structure (aluminum and steel), a polymer truck for landmine prevention, and shock absorbing sheets.
Reports say that even Russian soldiers who investigated the captured M2A2 Bradley found their protective and firepower to surpass the BMP-3. These vehicles were able to withstand PG-9VS warhead attacks and, in some cases, anti-tank missile attacks from the flanks. This is due to the BRAT reactive armor.
Furthermore, the accuracy of the M25 guns is twice that of the Russian-made 30mm 2A42 and 2A72 guns, and the armor-piercing force of armor-piercing bullets is also twice that of the guns, which greatly improves range and lethality.
With the introduction of Bradley and Murder, the Schesslau Brigade’s combat capabilities have been dramatically enhanced, providing a system in place to accommodate a more sophisticated and dynamic battlefield environment.
