Keep in mind, in Vietnam, most small firearm engagement is within 50 yard. In the open terrain of Afghanistan, the kill zone is often in the 300m-500m. Hardly ever, you kill your enemy beyond 300m.

I think you are grossly underestimating the advantage the xm25 brings to the table. The few grunts I know are real excited over this. Where as currently, they have to call out air support or risk movement to engage enemy beyond 300-500 meters, xm25 gunner within the sqd can engage that enemy instantly.
