This will be a game changer.
The XM25 will enter production in 2017, it will be the first radically different small arms technology released since "1943".
The XM25 will destroy the value of cover. "Built-in targeting lasers, infrared sights and a ballistic computer calculate the exact location of the target so the weapon can fire a projectile precisely past it. The 25mm round — essentially a precision-guided mini-grenade — waits to detonate until it has passed whatever cover the target had and can strafe its unprotected side. It will blow up above a trench or foxhole, on the far side of a wall or barricade."
