KEY INTELLIGENCE TAKEAWAYS & SUMMARY
- Northrop Grumman and Barrett joined forces for the production of the 25mm Precision Grenadier System (PGS).
- Weighing only 5.4 kg, the shoulder-fired system has a five-round magazine capacity.
- Thanks to the integrated inductive programmer, ammunition can be triggered precisely in mid-air or on the target.
- PGS provides a critical advantage against threats behind cover, close-quarters combat, and small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS).
Technical Capacity and Balance on the Battlefield
Developed based on Northrop Grumman's existing medium-caliber ammunition production lines and experience, four different 25mm ammunition families reduce production costs while minimizing program risk. This versatile ammunition suite not only neutralizes enemy elements behind cover but also creates an effective defense layer against close-range combat and small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) posing asymmetric threats. Eliminating the weight and range disadvantages of traditional 40mm grenade launchers, this 25mm smart solution takes the operational flexibility of infantry squads to the highest level.
