Task & Purpose: How the New U.S. Army's 'Smart Scope' Changes Combat

Task & Purpose takes a look at the L3 Harris entry for the U.S. Army's Next Generation Squad Weapon Fire Control System as part of its program to select the Next Generation Squad Weapon (NGSW)... "How did we get to computer powered scopes that calculate bullet drop instantaneously? The ACOG and CCO gave infantry a massive performance boost. It's the first step to soldier augmentation. This is where the real future of firearms will be. We see gun manufactures getting into the development of optics for this reason.

L3 Harris sent us exclusive footage of the Next Generation Squad Weapon Fire Control System. We interviewed there design team to get all the answers about how this scope will improve the infantry's hit probability at 900 meters and beyond."
