* hey Taras! You know how to direct the drone very well! What was your job in civilian life?

Refurbishment of the Ukrainian Bradley IFV damaged in combat.
The Ukrainians praise these vehicles very much because even after an artillery shell is about to explode or a mine is hit, the crew has a very good chance of survival, and often no one is seriously injured. In similar circumstances, the entire BWP-1/2 crew usually dies on the spot and there is nothing to collect from the vehicle. Meanwhile, a large part of the damaged Bradleys is recovered from the battlefield and put back into service after repairs.
