M3 Bradly vs BMP-2
Ok these are my Opinions on the BMP-2 and the M3 Bradly on both Pros and Cons that i can see. At the bottom you tell me which one you think is better or the one you like the most. And also before anyone ask why not the Warrior or Japan Type 89 ifv and thats because both the Bradly and BMP-2 have stabilizers

M3 Bradly
Pros: Its got good speed, has 5 crew, a dissent rof with its 25 mm, a good amount of ammo, a dissent ammo pen if you shoot tanks from the side, good atgms where you can shoot 2 before relaoding and they are fast, good ben on the atgms and it can use recon to spot enemy players.( also real life Bradly is amphibious tho idk if the one in game is if anyone tested it and knows say so at the bottom)

Cons: Is big for a light recon tank, even tho gun has a dissent fire rate its slower then the bmp 2, atgms are on the left side of turret and can only be used if only going 10 speed or fully stopped, when atgm is to be used after stoping it takes time for them to get ready, and armor is ok but not great.

BMP-2
Pros: its got good speed just little slower then Bradly, has fast rof with its 30mm, has dissent ammo pen tho little weaker then bradly if you shoot tanks from the side, is low profile then the Bradly soo wont be spoted as easy. Atgm is ontop so you can shoot from cover and can shoot while on the move, good ben on atgms, can recon to spot enemy players and is amphibious.

Cons. weak armor even weaker then Bradly armor, low ammo with the 30mm rof you go through ammo fast, only carries 4 atgms and can only shoot one at a time and are little slower then Bradlys atgm, only 3 crew and with the armor upgrade pack it cant be amphibious.

(and if i missed anything or said anything wrong then leave it at the bottom at well)

BMP 2 does everything the Bradley does better and at a lower BR (8.7 vs 8.0). so choose the BMP2.

Armor doen't matter when it comes to those 2, its about seeing your enemy first and dealing with them. the BMP line does that better because they smaller and can use their atgm while moving or right after they get into cover.

Because the Bradley is going to be terrible at 8.7

Hell the Japanese Type 89 pretty much the same thing as the bradley with a Better missile and its at 8.0

well not everyone plays them for thier br man i mean ive seen guys use the bmp-2 at top br facing 10.0 and do alot of damgne to the enemy team and thier be ppl who can do the same with the Bradly just got to know how to handle it is all
Alex Dec 14, 2018 @ 8:28am 
advantage of the bradley is that it can shoot 2 ATGMS before reloading and its more armor which it will save it from 50 cals and machinegun fire also the ocessional bounce

Thats Because the BMPS get 600mm pen Missiles at 7.3 and 8.0 The Bradley is getting a 430mm pen missile at 8.7 with no upgrade. Said Missiles can easly be brough up to a higher BR and not have a Problem Penning things while a 430mm Missile will have a hard time go through armor at those BRs and thats before we getting to the BMP being smaller so its easier to hide.

The Type 89 is getting 700mm pen missiles.

Bradley has way more ATGMS and a better launcher ( 2 shots and can fire at low speed). You know the thing you need to engage actual tanks.

Also what's so hard to understand about DEVSERVER STATS ARE NOT FINAL?

I think it already had a lower BR in the last iteration.

Because the Bagel had the Same stats through its Dev server run and entered the game at 8.7 where it was terrible and then after 1 year they moved it down to 8.3 where it still is terrible.

meanwhile BMP 1 gets to stay at 7.3 while being far better and the BMP 2 was only recently moved up to 8.0
