Anatomy of War: The Bradley Gets an Upgrade

As we get set to head off for a well-deserved vacation, we noticed that the US Army unveiled the latest iteration of its Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle. Dubbed the M2A4E1, the newest variant boasts a wide array of enhancements that are designed to make it more lethal, survivable and mobile on today’s battlefield. There’s a good chance that many of the upgrades discussed in the accompanying video will be incorporated into the upcoming M10 Booker armored fighting vehicle, a lighter and more maneuverable combat tank than the M1 Abrams. The Bradley, which was named after General of the Army Omar Bradley, has served the US Army well for over four decades, first entering service way back in 1981. Over the years, it has been continuously upgraded and reconfigured, all in an effort to keep it current with the latest technological advancements achieved by DARPA.
