M855A1 in a very round about way is actually a sign of intelligence from the military. For years, we have been cutting back our military trying to make it lighter and more maneuverable to better deal with the fluid battlefields of the War on Terror. Meanwhile, thinking people kept pointing to larger countries with well equipped or improving militaries saying, “we still may end up fighting those guys”. So think of M855A1 as a concession to the reality that we may have to fight an army that isn’t third world, an actual army that equips their men with body armor. Sure the round itself isn’t so great, but at least it shows thought. Hopefully, our nation can improve it’s small arms situation effectively over the coming years.
