I understand why they don't include the info, but would be real nice to know how many Bradleys they included here. They have done pretty well over there.
TBH it's really weird that they announce this kind of stuff so publicly in first place. I'd expect this to be a military secret, not a public show. 🤷♂️
This typically needs congressional approval, or at least notification. Almost impossible to keep this secret and attempting to do so would just look really bad to the public.
Sure, but it still looks really weird that specs are not a secret, at least to general pubic.
Everything is political this time of year. They want supporters of ukraine to vote democrat next election
