The reactive armor package, designed specifically for the U.S. Army’s Bradley Fighting Vehicle, is saving lives and preventing crippling damage to combat vehicles in Iraq, giving units equipped with the armor a clear advantage on the battlefield.
Each Bradley is covered with 96 tiles, which attach to the sides, the turret and the front of the vehicle.
