On a related note regarding Bradley characteristics, are those things amphibious the way they're supposed to be? (sorry, haven't seen many Bradleys to test it out myself)

The Bradley series vehicles are only amphibious with 20-30 minutes of crew prep, and even then, you should not be trying to swim long distances with them. The vehicles that are amphibious with the push of a button or minimal crew prep (couple of minutes) are amphibious in this game.

Not noobish. Many sources list the Bradley as "amphibious," but aren't in depth enough to tell the limitations of that. The info I posted is what I learned from doing research over the years, including asking a couple of Bradley crewmen. The US Army doesn't have any truly amphibious vehicles, they leave that to the Marines. That gives a lot of the Russian vehicles a leg up on ours, since they are amphibious with minimal if any crew prep.

So would I be correct in assuming that the GAZ-3937 (aka Vodnik) is amphibious? According to many sources it is capable of 4-5km/h when "swimming", which hints to me that it is amphibious (also its name roughly translates into waterman or something similar)

Vodnik, BRDM, BTR, many many other Russian vehicles are amphibuos..
They will be changed when/if they get a chance.

the M6 Linebacker is a variant (due to be retired), PR definitely needs the M2A3 / M3A3 with TOW missile.. should be two on every map with armor currently.. Al Basrah for example, 2 APCs, 2 Abrams (would like 4) and 2 Bradley's at least, with this much armor it would be so cool to see a column moving into Al Basrah's city limits!
here is a picture of a Bradley in its swimming gear

Is the NOS going to be fixed so that it's continuous? Or are we going to see the NOS tank in the vehicle, possibly with some blue flames coming out the back.
