M2 A2 Bradley

The M2 Bradley and M3 Bradley are American infantry fighting vehicles. The Bradley, named after WWII General Omar Bradley, is a replacement for the M113 family of APCs and consists of two types of vehicles, the M2 Infantry Fighting Vehicle and the M3 Cavalry Fighting Vehicle. The M3 CFV was originally going to be named after General Jacob L. Devers, but it was decided the Bradley name would apply to both. Since both vehicles are based on the same chassis, they differ in only some details. The M2 carries a crew of three and a six-man infantry squad. The M3 on the other hand carries only a two-man scout team and additional radios, TOW and Dragon or Javelin missiles.

The troubled development history of the Bradley is described in air force Lt. Col. James Burton's 1993 book (James G. Burton, The Pentagon Wars: Reformers Challenge the Old Guard, Annapolis, Maryland: Naval Institute Press) ISBN 1557500819, which was adapted for the 1998 film The Pentagon Wars starring Kelsey Grammer and Cary Elwes.
