Heck they also said the rifles couldn’t survive a 72 hour mission “without a critical failure”…Soldiers Give the Army's New Rifle Optic Low Ratings | Military.com

The article does not say what the failure was. Just that it had a low probability of completing a 72 hour mission without one. That sounds a bit curly to me.
I've heard nothing but glowing reviews about the rifle and sighting system. A guy that could utilize all of the capabilities of the scope would be well trained indeed.
I wonder what's failing? They didn't specify if it was the rifle or the scope. Or if the "failures" were something they can engineer their way around. It just casts doubt without offering anything tangible to back it up.

My opinion is screw all that! Crazy, just think of the waste of money. Grenade launchers have been around longer than most people.The truth is training is what makes good soldiers,trying to take the human element away from fighting is? Push this,This chit pisses me off.War is the biggest scam ever invented.

I don't have insurance (I know I probably should) but I just had to visit a dermatologist for an issue with my hands. Cost me $125. Lady before me had insurance, deductible was $100 and had to get a referral before even showing up.
The doctor looked at my hands and gave me 2 prescriptions which she sent to CVS for me to pick up. I got there, gave the lady my name, she grabbed my stuff, and then asked me for my insurance card. I said I don't have insurance and she said "OK give me a minute. This is almost $300"
She went and did her thing and then proceeded to ring me out for like $37.00
I know one day it's going to bite me in the butt, but as of now insurance and the people billing insurance companies just seems like scam artists.

I had my thumbs fixed 10 or so year’s ago. Just the operating room was $40k for just under 2 hours.
The insurance company negotiated it down to $850….and we wonder what is wrong with healthcare.

My coworker was in a dirt bike accident almost two years ago and managed to break practically everything. 2 weeks in the hospital and out of work for 3 months without insurance. He got a bill for almost a quarter million which then got negotiated down to something like $20k. It still hurt but wasn't a mortgage payment any more
