| Tribuni Angusticlavii | The XM-25 is the critical part of the OICW program, it is really never going to be cancelled because it's incredibly effective in tests. It's just taking a long time to get sensitive electronics to work in rain, snow, sleet, hail and exploding propellant going off right next to it constantly. Basically it's kind of indefinate when it's going to be fielded but look towards 2012. |

| Tribuni Angusticlavii | Internal army tests reveal a 500% improvement in leathality over the M-203 and a 300-500% improvement in hit probability. It is ideal for urban combat situations. Basically you're giving the soldier the ability to pop one shot through any window and kill everyone in the room at up to 500 meters away. |
