This program has been in the works for several years in parts of the Marine Corps (0306 Gunner community, Weapons Training Bn at Quantico and Lejeune, and some past/present instructors of Infantry Officer Course). Some have been waging a quasi-insurgency (or so I had heard) against the procurement system by implementing some of these upgrades via Urgent Needs Statements while preparing for deployment, then writing extensive AARs detailing success of upgrades.
As for who to talk to...I have no idea, but would recommend trying to get in touch with one of the Gunners mentioned in the article and find out who is honchoing the program.
