Test firings occurred on a Stryker demonstrator on 19 February 2014, showing increased lethality and accuracy over the standard .50-caliber machine gun at ranges from 600-1,550 meters; the 30 mm cannon is capable of hitting targets over 2,000 meters away.[source]M1126 infantry carrier vehicle · Armament; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage After comparative testing of the Kongsberg MCRWS mounted to Strykers, the U.S. Army approved on 22 April 2015 the equipping of 81 of the 2nd Cavalry Regiment's Strykers with 30 mm Mk44 Bushmaster II cannons following a lethality upgrade request to increase lethality against other light armor vehicles while preserving its wheeled mobility advantages. The first upgraded ICV, designated XM1296 "Dragoon" , was delivered for testing on 27 October 2016, with fielding to begin in May 2018. The first infantry carrier vehicle Dragoon (ICVD) was delivered to the 2CR in Germany on 8 December 2017.[source]M1126 infantry carrier vehicle · Armament; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage |
