When it comes to equipping the modern infantry, it is increasingly clear that changes are afoot. Perhaps nothing signals this more clearly than the recently announced plan to reorganise the United States Marine Corps (USMC) ground combat element. According to Marine Corps Commandant Robert Neller, the Marines are reorganising and adding more lethal weaponry to their rifle squads in the form of Heckler & Koch M27 automatic rifles and Saab M3 MAAWS (Carl Gustav) shoulder-launched weapons, and they are distributing handheld devices and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to those squads as well. More weapons upgrades and personnel assigned to tasks such as coordinating intelligence, countering UAVs, and providing logistical support for these new weapons are being added at the company level.
