Drone footage records a battle between a Russian T-90 tank and a Ukrainian M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle in Stepove, near Avdiivka.

The Russian tank reportedly made a breakthrough charge deep into Ukrainian-held ground and came face to face with an American-made Bradley. The Bradley began accurate main gun fire at a cyclic rate.

The 25mm chain gun rounds can be seen impacting repeatedly on the T-90. The Bradley speeds out of the area while still delivering accurate fire and making hits. The T-90 appears to fire at least once, but only manages to hit something in between the two vehicles.

Th Bradley then returns to the area and reengages the T-90 from down the street. Dozens of hits are made, and impressively the T-90 survives most of them. Eventually, the T-90 goes out of control and crashes into a tree, The Russian crew bails, and a Ukrainian drone drops some finishing touches on it.

Unfortunately the video was uploaded in low resolution. If a higher quality version shows up, we will update the site.
