M2/M3 „Bradley“

03143-0389 2005 BY REVELL GmbH & CO. KG PRINTED IN GERMANY

M2/M3 „Bradley“ M2/M3 „Bradley“

Der im Jahre 1983 eingeführte M 2 „Bradley“ ist das Stand-

ardfahrzeug der amerikanischen Panzergrenadiere. Die Haupt-

bewaffnung besteht aus einer McDonnell Douglas Helicopter

Systems 25 mm M 242 Bushmaster Chaingun mit Doppelgurt-

zuführung (Feuergeschwindigkeit: maximal 200 Schuss pro

Minute), dazu kommt ein koaxial zur Maschinenkanone und rechts

von dieser eingebautes 7,62 mm M 242 C Maschinengewehr. Links

am Turm ist ein auf- und abklappbarer Startbehälter für zwei

Panzerabwehrflugkörper TOW angebaut. Der M 3 „Devers“ (der

Name dieser Version setzte sich nicht durch) ist das Standard-

fahrzeug der Panzeraufklärer Sowohl der M 2 als auch der M 3

sind, nach Aufrichten eines am Fahrzeug vorhandenen Schwimm-

balges und Aufklappen des Schwallschildes am Bug, schwimm-

fähig. Auch im Wasser wird das Fahrzeug von den Ketten

angetrieben und erreicht eine Höchstgeschwindigkeit von 6,4

km/h. Die im Jahr 1985 erfolgte erste Kampfwertsteigerung für

den „Bradley“ (M 2 und M 3), die überwiegend Änderungen am

Turm einschließlich der Möglichkeit des Verschiessens des neuen

TOW 2-Flugkörpers betraf, führte zur Version M 2 A1 bzw M 3 A1.

Eine drastische Verbesserung des passiven Panzerschutzes in Form

einer Zusatzpanzerung erfolgte im Rahmen einer ab Mai 1988

durchgeführten weiteren Modernisierung der Fahrzeuge und

führte zu der Bezeichnung M 2 A2 bzw. M 3 A2. Der beiden

Versionen als Antrieb dienende V8-Zylinder Cummins VTA-903 T-

Dieselmotor mit einer Leistung von 608 PS (447 kW) ermöglicht

eine Höchstgeschwindigkeit von ca. 61 km/h auf der Straße. Die

Besatzung des M 2 A2 besteht aus Fahrer, Kommandant und

Richtschütze. Der hintere Kampfraum bietet Platz für sechs

Panzergrenadiere, die über eine Heckrampe vom Fahrzeug

absitzen. Das Gefechtsgewicht beträgt 22.940 kg. Beim M 3 A2

besteht die Besatzung aus Fahrer, Kommandant, Richtschützen

und zwei Mann im hinteren Kampfraum. Das Gefechtsgewicht

liegt bei 22.443 kg.

The M2 „Bradley“, introduced in 1983, is the standard fighting

vehicle of the American armoured infantry. The main armament

consists of a McDonnell Douglas Helicopter Systems 25 mm M 242

Bushmaster chain gun with double belt feed (max. firing speed

200 rounds per minute), together with a 7.62 mm M 242 C

machine gun mounted coaxial to right of the cannon. To the left

on the turret is a launcher that swivels up and down for twin TOW

anti-tank missiles. The M3 „Devers“ (the name of this version was

not adopted) is the standard vehicle of the tank reconnaissance

units. Both the M2 and the M3 are amphibious after a flotation

screen and the trim vane at the front have been erected. The

vehicle is still propelled by its tracks when it is in the water and

develops a maximum speed of 6.4 km/h. The first combat capabil-

ity upgrade made to the „Bradley“ (M2 and M3) in 1985, primarily

involving modifications to the turret, including the capability to

fire the new TOW 2 missile, led to the M2 A1 and M3 A1 versions.

A drastic improvement of the passive armour protection in the

form of applique armour was made within the framework of a

further modernisation carried out from May 1988 onwards and

giving the designations M2 A2 and M3 A2. Both versions are driv-

en by a V-8 Cummins VTA-903T Diesel engine with a capacity of

608 hp (447 kW) giving them a maximum road speed of approx.

61 km/h. The M2 A2 is crewed by a driver, a commander and a

gunner. The rear troop compartment can accommodate six

infantrymen who dismount via a rear ramp. The combat weight is

22,940 kg. The crew of the M3 A2 consists of driver, commander,

gunner and two men in the rear troop compartment. The combat

weight is 22,443 kg.

Should I paint my Revell model before or after it is built? Verified
