Nice picture for everyone planning to build Tamiya M2A2ODS kit and use interior from older M2 kit: http://community.webshots.com/photo/390055703/409542825izVOBL.

As you can see from the date on the picture, such configured Bradleys were still in use in summer last year and probably still are.


Here is another picture of this Bradley: http://community.webshots.com/photo/409542106/409542106fEbhxC

Note that it has old style driver's hatch and still has work platform attached. It is a perfect candidate to build from Tamiya kit! You just have to add reactive armor...

On the second photo, I don't see the 25mm barrel. I see the coax, but is the barrel hiding behind the open hatch? Given the raised position of the coax, I'd think I'd see it.

Jeff,
The barrel has been removed. Look right of the coax, you can see the opening where the barrel inserts.
