Air-defense laser tank experiment concept based on cannonless Leclerc MARS towing tank hulls.
Laser: Cilas/MBDA, or other.
Kinetic armament: GPMG/.50 cal on RWS, 30mm ARX30, or other.
Sensors: Spynel thermal cameras with object detection and tracking, radars.
I think future service rifles need to have the option to use 40-round, 45-round, 60-round magazines, or more without making them too unwieldy.
For either to react to UAS/drone contact or to do trench work.
