US ARMY, M2 IFV (Infantry Fighting Vehicle) BRADLEY.

Artitec, 1870144. Unassembled 1/87 Scale Model.

The Bradley was developed largely in response to the Soviet BMP family of infantry fighting vehicles. The Bradley was meant to serve as both an armored personnel carrier and a tank-killer. One design requirement specified that it should be as fast as the M1 Abrams main battle tank, so the vehicles could maintain formation.

The Bradley is designed to transport Infantry or scouts with armor protection, while providing covering fire to suppress enemy troops and armored Vehicles. The M2 holds a crew of three (a commander, a gunner, and a driver) along with six fully equipped soldiers.

The factory photos may show it as a fully assembled and painted model.
