At some full point in humanity ’s future , our military force are going to have to fight down alien invaders , furious robots or hordes of automaton . at long last , a bunch of foot grunt are going to have to guard the line against the onrush . And they ’re going to need guns . Awesome artillery . What have the arms merchants of the world been cooking up ? Here are the five guns Popular Mechanics thinks are the most promising . XM-25 ( pictured ) – This grenade launcher has two thing break for it : a optical maser kitchen range finder and shrapnel grenade with computer chips in them . What does this mean for soldier ? Imagine a bunch of outlander taking cover around a corner . Measure and set the range for just past the street corner , displace a grenade , and watch as it completely negates their cover . This is essentially a weapon you ca n’t blot out from . Corner Shot Launcher – This Israeli / German weapon is also intended to obviate the advantage of cover by allowing a soldier to peer around a corner with a video recording photographic camera and then fire a grenade or smaller round using the collapsible firing post that can bend up to 90 degree . SCAR - Light – This rifle could be the alternate for the M-16 , which was first bring out in 1964 . It ’s fundamentally a light , accurate , reliable gun with quick change barrels for different surround and easy replaceable constituent . Sometimes simpler is better , although what ’s with the super creepy name ? FMG9 Folding Machine Gun – I ’m not sure the creation really needs a submachine hitman that shut down into a brick little enough to fit in a large scoop , and switches immediately from “ brick ” to “ blazing instrument of death ” with the push button of a clitoris . Can we uninvent this , please ? SAR 21 – This weapon system is distinguished by the fact that the Singapore military has been using it for years . It ’s powerful and precise , has integrate optical maser sights , is compact for fighting in sloshed quarters and is designed with a limited “ directly back ” backlash that does n’t affect accuracy . You have to inquire if the main reason the U.S. is n’t using it is because it ’s made in Singapore . So , no beam ordnance , which is kind of disappointing , and a lot of money and mental capacity is being drop on developing efficient violent death tool , which is also middling dissatisfactory , since we all know none of these will probably ever be used against exotic invaders or zombie . mental image by ATK.Top 5 High - Tech Guns for Next - Gen Infantry.[Popular Mechanics ]
