‘Intelligent-Rail’ Software Destined for Next-Gen Squad Weapon

The Army has approved an upgraded software and hardware system that will be integrated into its next-generation squad weapon.

T-Worx, a technology innovation company based in Sterling, Virginia, is a component supplier and provides the I-Rail to all of the next-generation squad weapon competitors, said Ben Feldman, the company’s chief engineer and I-Rail developer. The next-gen squad weapon is intended to replace the service’s M4 carbine and M249 squad automatic weapon.

The T-Worx I-Rail is both a software and hardware platform that has been developed in six variations over the past 10 years, he noted.
