Does not suite the future battlefield where engagement will be dynamic and from even shorter distances.
You would need a rifle that puts a descent amount of fire power, which the match grade 5.56x45mm ss109 (Mk 262) does and more importantly is suited for rapid and precise engagement under extreme conditions.
(Backside of the mk262 is the decrease in hard-target/barrier penetration.)
well, that again depends on the type of warfare, in CQB that would be the case but 5.56 weapons lack effective range. I personally think that pak army is doing the right thing sticking with the G3 and complimenting them with the type 56s in anti-terror ops. I hope they stick with 7.62x51 for future rifles, I hope its the HK 417 however I am pretty interested in what's gonna come out from Türkiye (my Turkish friend always tell me to pronounce it like this ) aswell, because the HK's Gas piston technology is very reliable.
