{"product_id":"9781472815224","title":"Bradley vs BMP: Desert Storm 1991","description":"In the mid-1960s, the Soviet Union unveiled the BMP, the first true infantry fighting vehicle. A revolutionary design, the BMP marked a significant departure from the traditional armoured personnel carrier, with a lower silhouette and heavier armament than rival APCs. One of the most fearsome light-armoured vehicles of its day, it caused great consternation on the other side of the Iron Curtain as the Americans scrambled to design a machine to rival the BMP. The result was the M2\/M3 Bradley. These Cold War icons first clashed – not on the plains of Europe, but in southern Iraq during the Gulf War of 1991. Featuring specially commissioned full-colour artwork, this is the absorbing story of the origins, development and combat performance of the BMP and Bradley, culminating in the bloody battles of the Gulf War.","brand":"Bloomsbury USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47184061530352,"sku":"9781472815224","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781472815224_p0.jpg?v=1763599161","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781472815224","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
