The Bradley Fighting Vehicle System Version A3 provides improvements in lethality, survivability, sustainability, mobility, and command and control required to defeat the projected threat of the 21st Century.

Key A3 features include:

The Fox is a six-wheeled light-armored vehicle designed primarily to detect, identify, and mark areas of persistent liquid chemical warfare agent ground contamination.

Pressurizing and sealing the vehicle protects the usual four-man crew - driver, commander, MM-1 operator and surveyor or wheelman - from exposure to outside contaminants, and allows the crew to work without the constraints of protective masks and gloves. The primary chemical warfare agent detection system in the Fox is the mobile mass spectrometer (MM-1) and an air/surface sampler. This system is primarily a liquid chemical agent detector.

The addition of the M43A1 augments the Fox MM-1 system by providing a credible nerve agent vapor detector. The MM-1 detects chemical warfare agents by analyzing the ionic activity of a sample that has been collected either by raising liquid samples from the ground to the retractable sampling probe, using silicon sampling wheels, or by sampling the surrounding air.

The GRIZZLY [once called the Breacher] is an armored vehicle designed to breach obstacles including mines, berms, wire, rubble, and tank-ditches.

Since 2001 the Grizzly remains as an unfunded requirement.

PLS is a 33 ton truck trailer combination. The prime mover truck has an integral self-loading and unloading transport capability, a 16.5-ton payload trailer, and demountable cargo beds called flatracks. The vehicle may also come equipped with materiel handling equipment and/or a winch.

   

A variant of the M113 series of vehicles.
