Summary / Abstract (Note)The 21st Century has come up with new innovations such as improvedand new types of ammunition, advanced aiming systems, and multi-calibre ability. As weapons evolve, the delicate balance for assault rifle systems between power, weight, recoil and terminal effects will likely shift once again in an attempt to defeat body armour, to match the range of full-power cartridges, and to penetrate through wind shields and thinskinned vehicles while still producing good terminal effects.
