What a tool.
This is part of the failed future combat rifle. They just split up the parts. This is the grenade launcher part.
Way cool though but not ‘secret’ it has been bumping around the web for a while on strategypage.com etc.

Correct.

Note that the round doesn’t home, and you still need a clear flight path for the round. Hence, you still have to move.

Also, from what I’ve seen on the Afghan war, 500 yards isn’t enough in the way of range. Too, that’d be forty five degrees or so of departure angle, so you’re not going to shoot over anything to hit a target behind a barrier.

Cute trick, but I did a study/design project on the 40mm years ago, so this isn’t anything like news.

Funny, didn’t mention battey life and cost per round.

No thanks, I know guys good enuf with bloop guns to get nearly the same effect...range is an issue for both.
