Ann: Metal Storm, DSTO and Airtronic USA, Inc. Si, page-21

re: Ann: Metal Storm, DSTO and Airtronic USA,... I've read across a few web forums and some people seem to be saying this is bad news:

"Metal Storm's initial role is to contribute its extensive knowledge of electronic fire control systems and electronically initiated ammunition, together with providing access to specific patented intellectual property."

In my opinion, using MST tech to upgrade the M203 so it essentially becomes a 1GL is evidence of MST tech becoming mainstream. If some civilian and military buyers go for the 1GL while others go for the more expensive 3GL ? it?s all good for MST!

Moosey: ?my money is on BAE and has been for some time,? ? For what it?s worth, I agree with this theory.

I also have a theory about the Y board. It?s like a paid mercenary campaign! The crap on the Y board to me is the tip of the iceberg of how threatened someone is by MST. It indicates to me something good is going on at MST which another company/entity/person really hates.

For instance: I think MAUL could one day replace the need for soldiers to carry a shotgun on patrols in urban area?s. They just need the MAUL module on their rifle!
