YORK, Pa. — The Army and BAE Systems have agreed on a contract modification worth more than $390 million to upgrade additional Bradley Fighting Vehicles, the company announced today.

The order of enhanced, future-ready Bradley A4s will be delivered to the Army as the modern replacement to former variants, greatly improving lethality, survivability, and safety, BAE Systems said in a news release.

Some of the work will be performed at the Anniston Army Depot.

“Lethality, performance and next-generation capability is what the Bradley A4 brings to the fight,” said Bill Sheehy, Ground Maneuver product line director for BAE Systems. “It’s critical that we continue upgrading Bradleys to the modern A4 configuration so that warfighters have the equipment they need to dominate.

“This award not only fuels our commitment to keep the Army and our allies ready for the fight, but it also ensures our U.S. manufacturing lines stay hot and ready for continued production.”

According to the news release, the Bradley A4 is a critical, next-generation capability in the Army’s Armored Brigade Combat Team formation. Built with proven durability and commonality of design to reduce the logistics burden in the motorpool, the platform features digitized electronics for optimum situational awareness, network connectivity and communication within the ABCT, further increasing the ability to defeat any adversary no matter the terrain, temperature or threat, BAE said.

Along with Anniston, production and support efforts for the Bradley A4 will take place in South Carolina; Minnesota; California; Michigan; and Pennsylvania. The first vehicle deliveries will be complete by October 2026.
