The eternal struggle to be the world’s first power in military matters remains more in force than ever. Two countries are one step ahead of the rest: USA and Russia, with their fleets, armies, and land resources, They have the greatest tip technology in the military sector despite other countries such as China, India, Iran or Israel are getting closer.
Among the two leading countries -and dominating world during the last decades -, the US is very slightly ahead in the classification prepared by the specialized portal , With Russia following him very closely. Thus, there are numerous aspects to analyze this matter (human resources, military capacity, technology …)
If we attend to the latest analysis, it can be verified that there are two models of very differentiated tanks and from which one is superior. We talk about the M2A2 Bradley Assault Tank (USA) and Russian BMP-3. According to experts, the American combat car is superior to Russian.
In fact, in international media they ensure that it is something that Kremlin himself knows and assumes. Among other things, because Russian specialists and analysts studied Bradley and made a report that was filtered on Telegram at the beginning of April. According to the Russian report, Bradley has more protection and with greater precision than the BMP-3, its equivalent.
In any case, several researchers from the Us Rand Corporation, Marines Coronel, JD Williamsassured the environment T&p That is an aspect that should not have surprised the Russians, since it is something known and known by all the connoisseurs.
Two different paths
But everything has an explanation. According to Williams, the way in which both countries planned their equipment is different. While eThe US LP Bradley has an M242 Bushmaster 25 mm machine gun as the main weapon, whatS Russians opted for decades for a different strategy, by giving priority to the power of fire instead of protecting the crew. Another positive aspects of the Russian combat car is that it is more armed.
According to Williams’s words, “For Russia it was more important to have a great firepower and easy handling equipment that with a small amount of advanced systems. ”All this because they realized that too many tanks were lost during the battles.
On the other hand, according to Williams, Russia has several size problems, como are its limitations in electronics, Optics The Systems Fire control, among others. “That gives Bradley a great advantage on the battlefield,” said the analyst.
Finally, Mark Cancan, another expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) and Lieutenant Colonel of the Marine Infantry, He stressed that in any case, it is not a ‘by win’ victory of Bradley, since we do not have to underestimate the Russian resources
