One of these days, the U.S. Army really will replace its M2 Bradley Fighting Vehicle. The Army has tried to replace the Bradley at least five times since the early 2000s, spending nearly $20 billion without producing a single working vehicle. The latest effort to replace the Bradley collapsed in 2020 when the OMFV competition attracted only one qualified entrant. But now, the contest suddenly has five entrants: BAE, General Dynamics Land Systems, Rheinmetall, Oshkosh, and a new company from Michigan called Mettle Ops. The KF41 Lynx is a partnership between the U.S.-based Raytheon and the German defense contractor Rheinmetall.
