  1. Who remembers that fireworks-display-inna-box looking thing by metal storm that was this but biggerer? Line a 600 shot pre-aimed-at-a-square mortar. I can't find the little CGI mock up they made but there's a few snippets in this video: https://youtu.be/NLNuBq0NQJE Metal Storm was mostly a bad idea but this Guy Fawkes (4th July) Box of Doom is a great idea. I cannot believe they didn't build this. Probably just waiting for the patents to expire.

  4.  @fajile5109  The reason would have been, "it doesn't add enough tactical use for it's cost in acquiring, maintaining and retraining" Because that's always the reason However the fireworks doom box clearly fills a niche the XM7 was built for.
