Adv Armor-Piercing (ADVAP) for Small Caliber Ammo
Abstract
Advanced Armor-Piercing (ADVAP) project is a critical technology development in response to the 7.62 millimeter (mm) and 5.56mm Family of Ammunition Capabilities Development Documents (CDD). The nomenclature for the 7.62mm ADVAP is XM1158. The overall objective of the ADVAP project is to develop and Full Materiel Release (FMR) both 7.62mm XM1158 cartridge for the M240 machine gun and ADVAP ammunition in calibers below 7.62mm. The ADVAP ammunition in calibers below 7.62mm for the Next Generation Squad Weapons (NGSW) is referred to as the Special Purpose ammunition. The objective is to provide overmatch capability to defeat advanced light armored threats within typical machine gun engagement ranges. NGSW Family of Ammunition: The NGSW ammo is a new ammunition technology under development for use in the Next Generation Squad Weapon systems. The objective is to develop and FMR the new ammunition.
