A Soldier aims an XM-25 weapon system at Aberdeen Test Center, Md. It fires 25 mm grenades that are set to explode in mid-air at or near the target. It features an array of sights, sensors and lasers housed in a Target Acquisition Fire Control unit on top, an oversized magazine behind the trigger mechanism, and a short, ominous barrel wrapped by a recoil dampening sleeve.
