I type corrected, but that's just about as bad. However, the velocity out of this thing is a lot lower than the Bushmaster cannon in the Bradley. It's also heavy as heck, I suspect the performance of the Bushmaster 25mm HE round is going to be a LOT less effective against armor from this weapon. As for knocking out a light armored vehicle, we already have something that can do that. It's called the .50 BMG. The 40mm round can also blow off a track or disable a BTR.

Thanks, but I will go with the thermobaric RPG-29.
