It could be a very useful unit for the Airborne Doctrine. :) But there's the problem of everything related to making the model and putting in-game.

M551A1 Sheridan would be a good alternative option of M2A3 Bradley and performs more like ZTZ59D. 152mm hesh would do great damage to infantry and Shillelagh would work like TOW.
The only question is US has abandoned M551A1 in 2000s because its poor firepower, armor and reliability.

Pff...

If it's not in service anymore, I'd say this is a no-go. Then again, CoH was never known for it's realism. If anything, I'd stick this with the Air Superiority doctrine, and unlocks with the Airborne Assault ability (a seperate ability than the Airborne Assault).

We discussed adding it a while back. It was a very problematic tank in real life, it had issues with its cannon and wouldn't really fit the role that the bradley currently holds. It is much too weak.

Yep, trouble-causer but the only one with airdrop capacity. That's why those troubles have been endured for so long. :)
