US-built Bradley vehicle lights up Russian tank in Ukraine in dramatic video

Take that!

Heart-pounding new drone footage shows the moment Ukrainian forces at the wheel of a US-built Bradley fighting vehicle blast a high-tech Russian tank to smithereens.

Video released by Kyiv’s 47th Mechanized Brigade shows the US-supplied vehicle hammering a Russian T-90 armored tank at close range in town of Stepove in Donetsk — with the salvo disabling the target, according to a report from the UK’s Telegraph newspaper on Thursday.

After the Bradley’s guns disabled the tank, an armed drone moved in for the kill, the report said.

The crew of the heavy-duty Russian tank survived the initial barrage, but two were killed after fleeing the wreckage and a third was captured, the outlet reported.

“That T-90M took 20-plus 20 mm rounds to its frontal armor, and an [first-person view drone] and the entire crew survived,” Rob Lee, a senior fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute, told the Telegraph.

“An [infantry fighting vehicle] or [armored personnel carrier] would not have been as lucky,” Lee added.

The T-90, one of Russia’s most effective tanks, has struggled during the Ukraine War, with at least 27 of the armored vehicles knocked out of action or captured to date.

That’s largely because the Kremlin has favored military vehicles with more ammunition and maneuverability — and less protective armor, said Hamish de Bretton-Gordon, a former British Army tank commander.

“It shows just how vulnerable Russian tanks are, because protection comes a distant third to firepower and mobility,” de Bretton-Gordon told the Telegraph.

“They might be getting enough tanks back on track, but they just can’t come up with the trained crews, which is proving a real problem for Russia,” he added.

In all, Russia has lost 6,147 tanks since the start of the war, according to Ukrainian authorities.
