In the news:
BAE Systems demos 40mm cannon as option for US Army combat vehicles
BAE Systems has successfully demonstrated its 40mm cannon for the U.S. Army at Fort Benning, Georgia, as the service considers future lethality upgrades — particularly to its Stryker combat vehicle.

The Army is in the market to up-gun its Stryker vehicles and boost lethality across its fleet of tracked and wheeled vehicles. The service recently fielded a Stryker with a 30mm cannon — the Infantry Carrier Vehicle—Dragoon — to Europe to be tested by the 2nd Cavalry Regiment ahead of a decision on whether to add similar lethality across the Stryker fleet.

BAE Systems has spent years developing the 40mm cannon and is fielding it to the British Army. The system is at a technology readiness level of nine [DEFENSE NEWS].
