U.S. Army starts using game-changing XM25 smart bullet rifle

Our forces will start using a smart bullet rifle. If an enemy is hidden behind some rocks, adjust the bullets, as you would artillery, so they will explode just after passing the rocks. Thanks to Ed D. for this.

"The reason the XM25 Counter Defilade Target Engagement System is classed as a smart weapon is due to the control the rifleman has over the bullets it fires. Rather than just aiming and shooting, a distance option is given before the bullet will explode. So if you have a sniper hiding behind some rocks, aim just above him and set the bullet to explode 1 meter beyond the rocks. The same is true of someone taking refuge inside a building–the bullet can enter through the window before exploding."
