Also from my work list notes the USA has had the AP II operational for about a year now using USN stocks. They are now in full rate production for both services (From a bill paying prospective.). The USAF recently armed the A-10 with them as well I believe.

I'm well aware I posted the one ref. twice as it mentions the USMC operational fielding issue again as I submitted originally.
Walking away from the computer now- Good Night!!
