New army bullets: bigger, bolder and harder hits.
Defense specialist Allison Barrie shares information about a new bullet that is bigger, bolder and stronger than the current rounds. This new generation of bullets will help make American soldiers even more unstoppable by allowing them to shoot farther, accurately, than any known military rifle on Earth.
The Army has been working on a new bullet that is bigger, stronger and stronger to hit that will help make American soldiers even more unstoppable.
When you combine this new generation of bullets with the new generation of weapons for soldiers, then they can shoot farther, accurately, than any known military rifle on Earth.
There has been much mystery, rumors and speculation about this new generation of bullets. The details are classified and limited to the companies selected to produce prototypes.
But there are some key details that we can share. This is what you should know about Army objectives for this new generation of 6.8 mm rounds.
HARDER SHOWER - SIZE ISSUES
The new round of 6.8 is expected to replace the 5.56 mm in the new generation rifle and the SAW. The number refers to the diameter of the bullet, so the new round will be more than a millimeter in diameter.
The 5.56 mm has been short enough in mass to defeat the advanced armor. The largest current option, the 7.62 mm bullets, are short in propellant with too much mass.
ADJUSTED BOOTS TO DOMINATE FUTURE BATTLES FOR CITIES
Round 6.8 is the solution. When this new round hits a target, it will do so with more energy than 5.56. This translates into a better threat to stop the power of the soldiers.
A supersonic speed longer than the currently used bullets combined with less recoil and more stable shots should offer even greater accuracy.
This will be a radical change for the Army, which has relied on the 5.56 mm round for several decades, but which could play a vital role in ensuring that the soldiers are armed to face future threats.
BRAKING POWER
Given that these new bullets would be larger and tougher to hit, they would be a better combination for the threats that soldiers will likely face in future conflicts.
It is expected that rounds of 6.8 mm are able to penetrate the modern armor available today, as well as defeat future advances in body armor.
If US soldiers have to face forces from countries with well-equipped armies, the current bullets are not good enough. American ingenuity can do better and American soldiers deserve the best that can be provided.
ARMY ESTABLISHES VIEWS OF THE NEW CONCEALABLE MACHINE GUN
There are very justified concerns that round 5.56 will not penetrate the armor that is increasingly available to opponents, even at the organizational level, such as ISIS.
If the bullets can not penetrate the armor of the enemy's body, then those bullets are much less likely to stop a dangerous threat.
Equipping troops with more advanced weapons and bullets means that in these scenarios they will be safer and more effective with fewer rounds.

BEYOND ANY MILITARY RIFLE
There is a third crucial advantage that these new bullets could provide to the soldiers in the battle space: a more precise reach.
The goal is to create vignettes that help provide greater precision and reach.
When combined with the new generation of weapons that the Army has in motion, these bullets should be able to penetrate the advanced armor of the enemy even at distances of about 2,000 feet away.
ARM DESIGNED FOR THE MILITARY NOW AVAILABLE FOR THE COMPLIANCE OF THE LAW AND THE CIVILIANS
In fact, the Army seems determined to ensure that its soldiers arrive to confront an enemy with ammunition and rifles that fire more accurately than any other known military rifle.
WITH WHAT WEAPON WILL BE USED?
The United States Army has selected a new round to replace those who equip their M4A1 carbine and automatic M249 squad weapons.
Earlier this summer, five companies were chosen to produce prototypes of weapons in this new round of 6.8 mm. They are expected to develop two different ammunition cartridges using 6.8mm projectiles.
The next generation squad weapon will replace the M4A1 carbine for individual infantrymen. The Next Generation Squadron Automatic Rifle will replace the M249 Squadron Automatic Weapon, the "SIERRA".
The five companies chosen were: AAI / Textron Systems, FN America, General Dynamics, PCP Tactical and Sig Sauer.
FN America was chosen to provide two different variants and the other four companies presented a prototype of the M4A1 replacement and the M249 replacement.

Anticipating threats that soldiers may face in future conflicts, weapons must also be able to act in chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, cybernetic and EMP (electromagnetic pulse) attacks.
They can shoot in semi-automatic and fully automatic modes with the same magazine.
In closed night battles, opponents often point to the sound of gunfire and the visual signals of muzzle shots.
By incorporating removable sound suppressors and hidden flashes to minimize the outbreak of the cannon, this is expected to minimize these enemy attack aids and help keep the soldiers safe.
In addition to the qualities you could expect, such as performance in all environments and weather conditions and resistance to rust and scratches.
To mount additional improvements such as optics, soldiers can use the Picatinny rail.
6.8MM FOR CIVIL PURPOSES LIKE THE HUNT
Many hunters are familiar with this round size to use with medium games.
The Remington Arms with the US Special Operations Command. UU And the US Army Marksmanship Unit. UU They designed the 6.8mm to replace the NATO 5.56 cartridge in the AR / M-16 rifles. More than a decade ago they created this option between the 7.62 largest bullets in NATO and the smallest 5.56 mm.

Popular providers such as Nosler and Hornady offer 6.8 mm options for civilians. There are variants for hunters to use with medium sized games, for home and personal defense, as well as for shots.
There have been many misrepresentations in the media on this front. The Army will not simply use this commercially available 6.8 SPC cartridge. The current objective is a new generation of Army bullets that will be of the same caliber, but with a better range, lethality and many other qualities that remain classified.
IT IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH NATO'S ALLIES
One drawback of this change could be the loss of compatibility with NATO allies that use 5.56 mm extensively and will probably lack the resources and political will to improve their forces in a similar way.
It could also affect compatibility with other US forces. UU That they may not adopt this update to larger bullets. But none of these factors is greater than the importance of putting the best possible capabilities in the hands of US soldiers.
WHATS NEXT?
The army leadership is committed to this initiative and reaffirmed this recently in the United States Army Association (AUSA) Annual meeting and exhibition in Washington DC last month. However, Congress has not provided approval for the Army to make the new SAW / NGSW and ammunition a reality for soldiers in the coming year.
It is possible that American soldiers have to wait to obtain the advantage of a new generation of weapons and bullets that will make them more accurate at much greater distances than any other known military rifle on Earth.
