A sniper is NOT the same as a squad marksman. Stealth and an ability to gather information are big parts of our job. It's why we are a battalion or higher level asset.

There had been talk back in '05-'06 of making the XM-109 BORS site compatible with the air burst fuzed round. Now that would have made the XM-109 upper welcome in most sniper sections that already use the M-107 LRSR.
