AIM Control Enhancer System
The US Army is testing the new technology as part of the NGSW next-generation weapons project. Its task is to increase the combat capabilities of soldiers due to the "forced" stabilization of the rifle barrel when fired.
The AIM Control Enhancer (ACE) system, originally developed by the US Special Operations Command, is currently being tested in tandem with NGSW. The system is attached to the Picatinny rail and is a "mechanical motion suppressor" of the soldier's supporting arm. The shooter selects the target or direction of fire, after which the system gives the weapon the correct orientation. In fact, it negates the natural vibrations of the hand.

The Small arms stabilization unit was presented during the Special Operations Forces industry conference in 2019. At the time, SOCOM officials said they were conducting field tests of an ultralight version of the TALOS body armor, or rather, light polyethylene (PE) armor to protect the limbs. The army's choice in 2019 fell on General Dynamics-OTS, AAI Corporation Textron Systems and Sig Sauer weapons systems as prototypes for NGSW carbines and 6.8 mm automatic rifles. More than 600 soldiers and Marines took part in the testing of the weapon. According to the US Army, the tests will last until the summer of this year, after which the final version of small arms and ammunition will be selected. The NGSW program involves the adoption of two types of weapons that will replace the M4 carbine and the M249 light machine gun, which are armed with US Army infantrymen.
