ENGAGEMENT EXECUTION
The weapon systems on the Bradley are used toengage and destroy targets using direct precision andarea fires. In order for crews to take advantage of theBFVs weapon systems to quickly lay, engage, anddestroy threat targets, they must be experts in themethods and techniques of engagement execution.
