It sure does seem small (caliber and barrel length), but perhaps the accuracy brought in with the CCD camera, IR camera, laser range finder, and computer slewing capability will more than make up for that if BAE claims are accurate. I can see the logic that it's better to 'hit the target' than 'make a louder bang' with a bigger caliber.
