New Lightweight 25mm Chain Gun

ATK's new LW25mm Bushmaster will give soldiers what they need on the modern battlefield - increased combat effectiveness.

ATK's unique LW25mm Bushmaster will give the operator a remotely controlled, dual feed, next-round select, air-bursting munition capability. It can fire an air-bursting round to defeat dismounted infantry with one round and then engage a vehicle with armor-piercing with the next.

ATK weapons such as the M242 Bushmaster 25mm, MK-44 30mm/40mm, Bushmaster III 35mm/50mm, and the Bushmaster IV 40mm Chain Guns are known and used worldwide as the industry standard.

By building on this success, ATK will take advantage of the most advanced ammunition ever developed to put more versatile lethality in the hands of U.S. and allied forces.

And the LW25mm Bushmaster reliability stems from its DNA as an ATK gun system -- no candidate system has a better Mean Rounds Between Failure than ATK.

The LW25mm Bushmaster can be easily mounted on today's armored vehicles and is an ideal consideration for the U.S. Army's Future Combat System family of platforms.

It will feature ATK's remote-controlled system and firing versatility to protect the soldier under armor, while eliminating the threat.

ATK is building on its heritage to develop the world's finest LW25 gun system.
