(You can't tell I'm opposed to the OICW concept.)

Actually, I think that minigreandes from SR fill this role already, given
50 years of explosives development and design refinement. Add a
rangefinder and link, with airburst grenades, and you have the OICW package.

(And hopefully the real US military will realise that the OICW with the
sub-carbine is not as versitile as a carbine or rifle with a secondary
launcher, or increase the magazine capacity and add a burst mode and issue
it as a single weapon, ala M-79, with a sidearm or compact SMG for backup.)

Question- can someone take a hitcherjack from a remote control eck so that
they can borrow sensor data from rigger controlled drones? If so, the
rigger and the sniper take a good hide site, and the rigger's drones double
as spotters. Use an encephalon to multitask you mind's eye.
