57-mm module's concept from UVZ

57-mm module's concept from UVZ
The Russians are going big in their next generation IFV when it comes to weaponry.  We're really looking at a hybrid vehicle...almost an infantry carrying light tank.  This is going to be something that the USMC should consider when selecting the weapons fit for the upcoming ACV.  They're sold on the .50 cal right now.  Should we go bigger?  The Russians WILL be selling retro-fit kit and new vehicles on the international markets.  We can expect to run into these vehicles sooner or later.
