The M2A3 Bradley IFV light tank was the Allied main battle tank of the Second World War. It was the lighter companion of the medium tank and entered service earlier than it.
[edit] Background
Fast and versatile, the Light Tank was able to outrun all soviet vehicles. Due to its speed it is also easier for it to crush infantry. Although due to its weak armor it wasn't able to prevail against soviet tanks, due to its low price it was easy to mass produce these tanks and deploy them in large numbers. The Tanks Main weapon was the 90mm APFSDS Cannon, it also had a .50 caliber M2 Browning Machine gun by the commanders hatch and another .50 caliber machine gun on a coaxial mount next to the main gun to give it a limited anti infantry capability (The machine gun is not used in game).
[edit] Behind the Scenes
The light tank is depicted by two different vehicles. The sidebar image is of the M2 Bradley IFV, which in the cinematics it is an actual tank seemingly based on the M60 Patton MBT.
