- Source: Special Purpose Individual Weapon
Special Purpose Individual Weapon (SPIW) adalah Program Angkatan Darat Amerika Serikat yang lama berjalan untuk mengembangkan, sebagian, bisa diterapkan flechette berbasis "senapan", meskipun konsep-konsep lain juga terlibat. Konsep terus diuji di bawah Program Future Rifle dan lagi pada 1980-an dan 1990-an di bawah program Advanced Combat Rifle, tetapi program tidak menghasilkan sistem yang cukup berguna untuk menjamin dan menggantikan M16 saat ini.
