#9: MCX-SPEAR-LT Launch SIG SAUER announced the evolution of the most advanced and tested rifle platform in the world with the introduction of the MCX-SPEAR-LT in September. Built off the foundation of the MCX Virtus, the third generation of the MCX combines all the extensive testing, continued product development, and customer/special operations feedback to become the MCX-SPEAR-LT. "The evolution continues and the MCX-SPEAR-LT has raised the bar for modular weapons technology," said Tom Taylor,

This is Sig Sauer's answer to the Army requirement for a Next Generation Squad Weapon Rifle. The MCX Spear is a contender to replace the M4. | Air Force Times
