Default Re: [OT] Military (non-political) discussion of Iraq war
This evening CNN was interviewing a captain in the 7th Cavalry. They had engaged a dug in Iraqi defensive position consisting of T-72s and other armored vehicles. They apparently killed approximately 20 vehicles with no losses. The point that was most interesting to me was that apparently the two Bradley AFVs involved got kills against T-72s using their 25mm chain guns. If that is true, I find that amazing. I never considered the Bradley's 25mm gun to be a tank killer.
