Sorry I've been getting these out late but I've been busy in other areas this past week. So here's more news from last week...
1. USA continues to make improvements to BRADLEY to increase its life cycle abilities.

2. I think this next will be the final nail in the coffin for the EFV, I fully understand its current status in the game and agree with it. We have time and I won't recommend a change in status until I post my final 2011/2012 Patch Post. Alternatives are discussed in this article, but I would further suggust that Brazil's new VBTP-MR fully amphibious 8x8 Marine version might get a look down the road as well. It certainly would fully meet the carry requirements for a USMC squad (13 I believe?) plus crew and can carry wide range of weapons as well. See the APC section Patch Post here or go to that thread itself for more info. Of course I'll continue to follow the EFV as needed.

Time get ready for work.
