Sig Sauer Shows off Army’s Next Generation Squad Weapon Submission
Sig Sauer feels they have a dominating submission to the Army s futuristic new Next Generation Squad Weapons program. Designed to replace 5.56 NATO caliber small arms – M4 series carbines and M249 Squad Automatic Weapons – in frontline use with new platforms sharing a common 6.8mm cartridge, the NGSW program has been underway since 2018. Currently, Sig Sauer is one of three teams, along with Maryland-based AAI Corporation/Textron Systems and Vermont-based General Dynamics-Ordnance & Tactical Systems, vying for the contract. The stakes are huge, with the NGSW platform being the largest shift in small arms by Western forces thus far in the 21st Century.
