M2 Bradley VS T 90 M, Armour Piercing Simulation
This simulation shows the impact of multiple rounds of the 25mm M919 APFSDS with a Depleted Uranium penetrator being fired from a Ukrainian M2 Bradley at a range of 0. 4km, targeting the front side of a Russian T90M hull. The main armor of a modern main battle tank will shrug off the 25mm round. However, mobility kills are possible. Stopping or slowing a tank has a huge impact on how much damage a MBT can inflict. While the treads often have armor panels, those panels aren t as heavy as the chassis armor. In the combat filmed recently in Ukraine, the first shots from the Bradley destroyed the optics of the T90M rendering it blind. As a result, the T90M was unable to return fire, subsequently it drove into a tree and got stuck. T90M Armour Configuration: 60mm SHA at 68 degrees; 5mm rubber + 3mm bulging steel at 68 degrees; 19mm air; 3mm bulging steel + 5mm rubber at 68 degrees; 60mm SHA at 68 degrees; 10mm radiation lining; 50mm SHA at 68 degrees;
