Hey guys, learned a few facts about a certain vehicle that I'll be operating in my career:

1.) Originally designed as a troop transport (12 men) but now can barely squeeze 6

2.) Is used for reconnaissance missions, but stands at over 10 ft tall, louder than heck, and is anything but stealthy.


3.) Meant as a very light and very quick vehicle, but now sports a functional turret turret equipped with a 25 mm gun, a coax, and an anti-armor TOW missile launcher.

4.) The colonel responsible for designing this beast wrote on his blueprints, "Help me, I'm losing my mind!" due to overwhelming pressure to continually add ridiculous components to his originally simple troop transport vehicle.

I am talking about non other than the Bradley Fighting Vehicle... gotta love this army! Hooah!

Click Here to see a Bradley hit and run that will probably happen to me when I get behind the wheel of one of these bad boys.
