U.S. Special Operations Command cancelled its in-house Lightweight Machine Gun–Assault (LMG‑A) prototyping project and transferred it to the Navy's Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane Division, per a December 7, 2025 special notice and December 8 reporting. The SOF Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics–Kinetic Requirements office (SOF AT&L‑KR) stated that it will "no longer be moving forward with the prototyping effort," and Navy Crane's contracting office will restart the program.
