Heart racing footage shows Ukraine's 109th Separate Territorial Defence Brigade trapped behind a crumbling shelter as three menacing Russian BMP-2 armoured vehicles storm their dug-outs.
But in incredible style, the lifesaving Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle (IFV) comes to the rescue and blitzes the Russian killing machines with impressive efficiency.
The armoured vehicle starts blasting away with destructive rounds from its 25mm cannon that leave the Russians stunned and near defenceless.
As the fierce attacks continue from the Bradley, the Russian trio are quickly torn apart as cannon fire rips through their hulls and explodes against their tracks - leaving them wrecked.

In the clip, shared by the brigade, the Ukrainian unit can be seen defending the village of Stepove in Ukraine's eastern Donetsk region before they were ambushed by heavy Russian attacks.
After being caught in horror streams of cannon fire the Kyiv men look set for a grisly end as the vehicles close in before they are miraculously saved.
Another clip from a separate rescue mission, shows a Bradley taking on a Russian tank dubbed the "world's best" by tyrant leader Vladimir Putin.
After battling for a few moments the Bradley takes full control and tears into the highly advanced T-90 tank on the battlefield in a show of impressive destruction.

The Bradley's armour-piercing rounds and precise attacks left the T-90 smoking and ripped apart.
Before moments later one of Russia's top war vehicles gets hit by a final shots and a huge explosions is seen from it's front in a chilling blast that lit up the snowy surroundings.
Bradleys were sent to Ukraine by the US early last year.
By September, there were reportedly over 150 roaming around the frontlines - leaving trails of smoking Russian trucks.
They are seen as exceptionally versatile and are viewed as one of the most impressive motors in Ukraine's arsenal.
Their near indestructible armour and ability to intercept Russian movements made them a top priority for Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Just this week, a Russian tank was obliterated and turned into a massive fireball that sent its turret flying 100ft into the air.
Dramatic footage, taken during an attack near Bakhmut, shows a Ukrainian kamikaze drone wiping out a T-72 tank.
The lethal FPV zeroes in on a $500k tank that had been firing at Ukrainian soldiers, meeting it with an impressive speed and slamming straight into it.
Recently, one of Putin's multi-million dollar T-80BVM tank was also annihilated by a cheap Ukrainian UAV in Avdiivka in further humiliation for the Russian ruler.
Dramatic footage shows the drone tailing the tank before hitting it dead on, tearing it apart in a fiery mess.
The successful hit came just after two of Vladimir Putin's most crucial planes worth £290million were shot down on Sunday.
One of Putin's £260million spy planes disappeared, while a £30million bomber jet was set on fire after Ukrainian forces blasted them out the sky above the Azov Sea.
Since the start of the war, Kyiv estimates that Moscow has lost over 6,000 tanks and 11,254 armoured combat vehicles.
Putin is also believed to have lost at least 340,000 troops, thousands of rocket systems, aircraft, ships, submarines and drones.
According to Admiral Sir Tony Radakin, this is Putin's second greatest mistake.
He said: “If his first catastrophic mistake was invading Ukraine, he is now making his second calamitous blunder.
“The Russian economy is being twisted even more out of shape.
“Nearly 40 per cent of all Russian public expenditure is being spent on defence.
“That is more than the aggregate of health and education.

“And the last time we saw these levels was at the end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union.”
He added: “This is disastrous for Russia and its people.”
