to replace the Bradley, but it sure does provide a better solution than the

Ahh, that's so sad. Maybe in the future we should buy German Puma IFVs instead:

YIKES!! At 43 Tons it might as well be an MBT.

Yeah, but it will be state-of-the-art and well protected. Add it up
there with the world's greatest MBT (Leopard 2A6) and SPG (PZH 2000).
Of course the Germans have a wide range of good armor including the
old but useful Luchs, Fuchs, Fenneck, Dingo, Wiesel, Gepard, Buffel,
the new special forces ESK, and the projected 25 ton MRAV 6x6.
