Summary0003838: M2 Bradleys issues
DescriptionCommander on M2A2 Bradley mustn't have any separate sights - he has only triplexes (vision blocks) and Gunner's Primary Sight Extension (GPSE).
GPSE allows Commander to watch same sight as gunner and even override gunners targeting.

M242 on M2 Bradley have capacity of 300 rounds, they could be separated in 2 belts, usually 230 HE-Frag and 70 APFSDS, just as it is right now in your awesome mod.
BUT when you out of, lets say, HE rounds, they reloading by few second and you can continue shooting, while in fact gunner will need some time to load another belt.
I think such fast reload speed have been made to simulate AP/HE belts switching, but it can be made by separating HE magazines classes and AP magazines classes by weapon classes so changing between AP/HE belt will be simulated by changing "weapon", and reloading belts will also require some time as it need to be.

right now there is no simulation of stowed main gun ammunition (except ATGM) since replenishing ammo takes plenty of time & there is no such solution for T tanks too. There is no way for GPSE simulation right now

What wrong with separate weapons for different belt types? I know few mods with this simulation - it works perfectly...
If you can't simulate GPSE, then atleast make commanders sight have less zooming ability - he has only vision blocks and look-in-gunners-direction-only sight, this is harsh limitation of this APC capabilities IRL.

What is wrong with non instant ammo type change?

As I said - speed of reload. You can't shoot belt if it's reloading... In our case it will atleast limit gunner not to shoot this belt (like it's reloading by other crew member).
For example KPVT on BTRs uses belt feed as well, and when you out of rounds you need time to wait untill belt reloads.

I don't understand? You are again talking about stowed ammunition and I already answered this part
