布雷德利原本是美军的一名五星级上将,在第二次世界大战中指挥过北非、西西里战役,参加过诺曼底登陆和解放法国、比利时及进攻德国等战役。为了让人们永远铭记这位二战名将,美国联合防务公司将其研制的一种装甲战车命名为“布雷德利”。“布雷德利”战车于1978 年正式定型,1981年开始服役(布雷德利五星上将于该年去世),后来逐步发展为 M2系列步兵战车和M3系列骑兵战车,至今已经服役25年。

Bradley was originally a five-star general of the U.S. military. During World War II, Bradley directed North and Sicilian battles, participated in the Normandy landings and liberated France, Belgium and attacking Germany. In order to make people always remember the World War II champion, the United States defense company will develop an armored combat vehicle named “Bradley.” The Bradley chariot was formally formalized in 1978 and began service in 1981 (Bradley’s five-star general died in that year) and later evolved into the M2-series infantry fighting vehicles and M3 series cavalry combat vehicles, which have been in service 25 year.
