M3 Bradley
The Bradley Fighting Vehicle is an American unit designed to provide covering fire while maintaining improved armor protection to the small crew inside.—In-Game Description
General Information
The M3 Bradley stands out as a formidable and lethal Light Armored Vehicle (LAV). Despite its limited range and burst-firing mechanism, its high damage, improved durability, and substantial bonuses against enemy structures make it a potent force. In group formations, multiple M3 Bradleys do enough damage to vaporize buildings in seconds.
Critical to its survivability are the armor upgrades, offering improved acceleration, resistance to mine damage, and a substantial increase in health. To maximize protection, it is advisable to combine the M3 Bradley with Infantry Fighting Vehicles (IFVs) like the BMP. The IFVs offer limited protection to certain projectiles (notably Rockets rom Salvo Turrets) and can quickly take down helicopters at close range, substantially improving the LAVs' survivability.
Adding to its impressive performance, the M3 Bradley features Stinger Missiles, which excel in taking down flying units that it cannot engage. Additionally, the TOW missiles, while having a relatively low DPS, contribute decent siege damage to turrets and can effectively finish off weaker buildings. This versatility makes the M3 Bradley a deadly asset on the battlefield.
