Read the following passage and answer the question: 'The M4 carbine has been the standard-issue rifle for the U.S. military since the early 2000s. However, in 2022, the Army selected the XM7 (formerly NGSW-R) as its next-generation squad weapon. The XM7, manufactured by SIG Sauer, fires the new 6.8×51mm cartridge, which offers significantly greater range and lethality than the 5.56mm NATO round used by the M4. The transition is expected to take several years as units across the Army are gradually equipped with the new platform.' What is the main idea of this passage?
