>I burst out laughing anytime anyone calls a BMP-2 better than a bradley
In my understanding, a significant factor that makes this or that weapon better is who operates it and in what capacity. The BMP-2 is ligher, which makes it more appropriate to be used in soft and wet soil. It's also cheper to build and to maintain. Lasty, it's not as much of a fuel guzzler as the Bradley. The lighter weight makes it so that it can more easily traverse farming countryside, or places where it rains a lot. The cheaper cost would make it attractive to countries with small military budgets, or those whose militaries are seeing cuts. The fuel thing, besides saving money, makes it more suited for it to be operated in places where a supply line isn't as secure, since it can go longer without being refueled.
>TLDR
The BPM-2 would fare better both in Brazil and the UK.
