The LSAT LMG is 41 percent lighter than the 21.5 lb (9.8 kg) SAW and its ammunition volume is 12 percent less, enabling all the soldiers that maneuvered the woodland obstacle course to complete it faster when carrying it.

LSAT caseless ammunition is caseless ammunition produced as part of the U.S. Army’s Lightweight Small Arms Technologies (LSAT) program. Although less advanced in development than the other ammunition component of the program, the caseless round has already produced significant results.

The Lightweight Small Arms Technologies (LSAT) program is funded by the U.S. Joint Service Small Arms Program, with the goal of significantly reducing the weight of small arms and their ammunition. [1]

Objective- Develop thermal mgt technologies applicable to caseless action and CT/CL barrels. Focus: Obtained up to 75% temperature reduction. Measured downbore temperature profiles for M249, MK46 barrels. Validated thermal model. Comments/Questions?

AAI is developing a next-generation family of high-performance, lightweight weapons and advanced technology ammunition as part of the U.S. Army’s Lightweight Small Arms Technologies (LSAT) program. LSAT is an Army Technology Objective and a Defense Technology Objective initiated in fiscal 2004.

2016年5月8日 · Three things are evident from these slides: 1.) CTSAS seems to be seeking a 1200m effective range for the ammunition for both the support weapon and carbine (shown on slide 11), 2.) 6.5mm CT retains energy better, but is not significantly lighter than 7.62mm CT ammunition, and both are 30%

The LSAT program is developing the ammunition and weapon as a system. The AAI concept is based on the parallel development of two ammunition concepts and associated weapons: cased telescoped (CT) and caseless (CL) designs. The weapon design is uniquely configured to fire this ammunition, and incorporates a high level of

2013年1月27日 · Cased telescoped ammunition weighs 40% less than brass cased ammo, so a 100 round ammunition belt weighs about 2 lb for the LSAT, compared to 3.3 lb for a brass cased belt. The LMG design is a traditionally laid-out (non-bullpup) machine-gun.

2023年12月24日 · The LSAT LMG is 41 percent lighter than the 21.5 lb (9.8 kg) SAW and its ammunition volume is 12 percent less, enabling all the soldiers that maneuvered the woodland obstacle course to complete it faster when carrying it.

2019年6月4日 · The Lightweight Small Arms Technologies (LSAT) program is a ongoing United States military joint-service initiative seeking to develop the next-generation of infantry small arms and their applicable ammunition types.
