  1. ​ @yellowtunes2756  As a former Bradley Fighting Vehicle crew member Armored vehicles take lots of maintenance. Adding additional weight puts lots of strain on drive mechanisms. They will break faster.

  3. Although costing more with about a 3km maximum range and no loitering ability, Javelins are typically one shot one kill. Although there are videos showing some vehicles taking multiple hits to ensure destruction. Drones are much cheaper. Possibly having a further range and loiter time. Again some get good shots and only take one. Many vehicles require second and third hits for total destruction.

  4.  @yellowtunes2756  I am not there. What I know is adding more weight puts a strain on the drive systems. Shearing off bolts between the drive sprockets and on a Bradley what was called a prop. That is a short drive shaft between the front drive sprockets and the transmission are no fun to fix. And the vehicle will only spin in circles. If an enough weight is added it reduces speed, manueverability, possibly vision and operation of the guns. It is a trade off. Edit. It can also add to logistical and maintenance times. Increasing the dowm time for any break downs.

  5. YT restrictions in certain countries. Most of the videos are available on other sites uncensored.
