It has got to be disheartening for pro-Russians after they were so excited a few pieces of western armor were killed before, just to see Ukraine's forces quickly brought back to higher than the prior strength.

I don't believe that the Bradley is currently being phased out. There's a proposed replacement in the works, but that's in the future.

Each team is expected to develop detailed designs over the next two years, followed by a competitive prototyping phase beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2025, during which the teams will build a minimum of seven prototype vehicles with an option to build four more.

Not even in prototypes yet, and the Army has cancelled a bunch of attempts at vehicle replacements in the past partway through.
