How is the Difference between the American M2A2 Bradley and the Swedish CV90

Both vehicles are highly armored and equipped with advanced technologies to protect troops and provide necessary fire support in the field of battle. Although developed by different countries and used by different nations, both have proven their reliability in various conflicts and military operations around the world.

Both the Bradley and the CV-90 are top of their Game, but the CV-90 is a more modern design with more Cards to play, it has the edge.

Lets just put this out there. The CV90, especially the later models are far more dangerous than the Lynx, Puma, Bradley or K21 fighting vehicles. They are more modern, the cannon is much larger (40mm) the types of ammunition 3p programmable ammunition is deadly as hell. It can air-burst at set ranges, it would annihilate every single Russian in ANY trench with ease from kilometers away.
The weight of this IFV is almost as much as the Russian MBT (main battle tanks). Close to 40 Ton.

The CV9040 is a highly aggressive vehicle, designed to control the initiative by staying mobile instead of slowing things down to a walk. Aggressive maneuvering is what the CV9040 is designed to do, outmaneuving vehicles and killing them in the flank and charging enemy positions to drop off soldiers right ontop of the enemy.

These tactics have been part of the Swedish doctrine since the late fifties as seen in vehicles like the PBV301 and PBV302. And it was directly copied from the German playbook of WW2, where the German panzergrenadiers/dismounts fought more often than not from their halftracks, allowing them to keep pace with the tanks and also maintain initiative through aggressive maneuvering.

A Bradley, Puma, K21 and so on is not designed for that type of combat. It's essentially an APC that drops off troops 100m from the fight. The CV9040 drops off troops within 0-50m from the enemy position, or simply drives up to it and let's the troops fight mounted.

In Afghanistan it was apparently tremendously deadly. The Danish or Norwegians were caught in some kind of fight/ambush and they annihilated the enemy.

P.S
1073 BHP in the high end version that is amphibic and extremely mobile in mudd and snow.

As a non-biased Swede (I hope) I notice the greatness about Bradley´s. We get reports from all over the battlefields on how well the Bradleys protect the troops. That is the number one mission. Even I get proud of the Bradleys. I have not seen a single report from the Battlefield regarding the CV90. I hope that the CV90 can deliver great protection. Great job America Slava Ukraine 💙💛

CV90 is not just 30mm, there are several different versions.

40 mm Bofors L/70 autocannon
or
35 mm/50 Bushmaster autocannon (export models Mk III and Mk IV)
or
30 mm/40 Bushmaster autocannon (export model Mk I & Mk II)
or
Cockerill XC-8 turret with 105 mm/120 mm cannon
or
120 mm mortar

CV90 is a VERY varied and modular platform, it is kind of it's selling point aswell. There are multiple gun options, turret options, armor options, an AA variant, Forward command variant, Recovery vehicle, a 120mm gun tank hunter variant, and many more.

Ukraine has ask to buy cv90 together with a other Country.

[SdKfz]

There is a reason why its called 9040, 9035, 9030. Used in sweden and of course Ukraine (since they are from sweden), is the 40mm..

[jonjonsson]

Cv90 iw 40mm, the 30mm is because of export wish
