“What this round has done is it’s going to make tactical planning in an operational environment a lot easier. The term that we use is 'Battle-Carry', what round we have in the breach when we enter combat, usually that’s going to be decided by what we expect the enemy to be throwing at us if we’re expecting tanks, we’re going to battle carry SABOT, our tank defeating round,' . . . '[The AMP] allows us to battle-carry that round without fear of running into a different enemy.'”
Battle-carry dilemma solved? See this impressive You Tube video.

See previous blog entry the X-AMP no longer a X!
More than anything else the video of the AMP round in slow-motion photography very impressive. Especially when impacting a target. That cost of a single round when fired exactly what? I might think that the cost rather large when taking into account the fifteen year research and development expenditure. No more "battle carry" dilemma?
