US combat vehicles keep the Russians at bay — but for how long?

America has sent more than 300 M2A2 Bradleys to Ukraine but many have been wrecked in the war. Soldiers fear Donald Trump, if re-elected, would leave them without replacements

The enemy were already closing in on the Ukrainian infantry positions when Sergeant Dzvinka Rymar rolled up to them in her American M2 Bradley fighting vehicle. Her driver pulled it round in a tight arc to reverse up to the Ukrainian trench, its gun facing the Russians.

The Bradley’s rear doors swung open, enabling eight Ukrainian soldiers to clamber to safety, as its Bushmaster 25mm chain gun sent round after round into the treeline opposite, held by Russian troops.
