“Since its first contact Dec. 3, the XM25 has been in nine engagements with two units at different locations,” armytimes.com. “Specifically, it has disrupted two insurgent attacks on observation posts, taken out two PKM machine gun positions and destroyed four ambush sites. In one engagement, an enemy machine gunner was ‘so badly wounded or so freaking scared that he dropped [his] weapon’ and ran, said Lt. Col. Christopher Lehner, Program Manager Individual Weapons.” Big difference.
