Last I heard, they were thinking of replacing both the 40mm Bofors and
the 25mm GAU-12/U

I wonder are they running out of WW2 stocks of L/60 ammo for the bofors ?
LOL!

with the 30mm GAU-8/A, on the grounds of commonality
with the weapon and ammunition in the A-10. Anyone know of a source
dealing with this?


Now that would be impressive with some form of smart fuzing.
