I believe these would be the first of western IFV's that would be sent (besides modified APC's), and I wonder if this is step before western tanks are sent. I'd imagine if western tanks were sent, it would be German Leopard tanks and not Abrams, for logistical reasons. Ukraine should be getting 90 upgraded T-72's soon as well as M1117's.
I'm wondering if this will all help lead to a major offensive by Ukraine soon, if we aren't already seeing that in the Luhansk region.

If Bradley’s are going, I suspect it won’t be for an offensive anytime soon due to the time needed for training and logistic support. That being said it would be great news, and we certainly have a lot of them so ongoing support shouldn’t be an issue.
