Can someone tell me where the exhaust system on the M2 Bradley is located.. There are some grills just to the right side near the turret and some grills on the front end but dont know what they are used for
Thanks in advance

Those grills are the engine intake and air cooler grills. The exhaust is located in the same area. It is a box sitting on top of the grills and it opens out to the right of the hull. On the M2 or M3 it is angled back, towards the right rear of the vehicle. On the M2A2 it is pointed directly over the side. In this picture (loacted in the Major Rob's Motorpool album) you can just see the exhaust cover on the right hand side of the photo, forward of the front turret slope.

Major, That Bradley is in need of some Corrosion Control work. Please detail someone from the Motor Pool to take care of it. Hee Heee LOL :-) #:-)
