Interesting. I do like the basic concept, but think the execution was botched.
Using a 5.56 carbine will advertise a downed pilot's location for miles around.
Wouldn't it be much more sensible to make it an integrally suppressed 9mm?



And if they are truly serious about enhancing pilot survivability, they really ought to issue camo flight suits.
The old sage green is fine in the cockpit, but far from the best choice for avoiding detection on the ground.
