Bradley is a P.O.S. by comparison.


Apples and Oranges.
Bradley is 1970's technology.
Puma is ermm, under development according to the site cited.
And-uh it may never be deployed.

So, I'll put together a team with oh say a battalion's worth
of Bradley scouts, you do the same with Pumas and we'll do the
High Noon thing. Air deliver to some remote site using oh say
C130 aircraft.
Oh wait, you can't...


Better make that C-17's (won't make a difference, really, since your point
would still be valid), 'cause IIRC the Bradley is not deployable by
C-130--the Stryker is (marginally).
