The XM25 Counter Defilade Target Engagement System provides a 25mm air breaching capability in all operational environments, enabling small units and individual soldiers to engage defilade targets. A soldier-portable, semi-automatic weapon system, the XM25 has been dubbed “The Punisher” by soldiers who have utilized it in Afghanistan. It fires individually.

A solitary soldier with rudimentary rιfle marksmanship abilities can incapacitate or engage vulnerable targets within a matter of seconds from a distance of 700 meters. The system enables the soldier to engage targets with pinpoint precision. An adjusted aimpoint is generated by considering user inputs, environmental conditions, and range. In addition to thermal capability, the target acquisition/fire control system incorporates a ballistic computer, direct-view optics, laser rangefinder, compass, and fuze setter.

Small units’ dependence on non-organic assets (mortars, artillery, and air support) is diminished, and they are no longer required to vie for firing priority during time-sensitive situations, thanks to the XM25. Apart from air-bursting ammunitiоn, another mission is supported by a family of ammunitiоn. Nonlethal and armor-piercing scenarios may be incorporated.
