The M10 Booker is an American assault gun produced by General Dynamics Land Systems (GDLS) for the United States Army. The M10 was developed from the GDLS Griffin II armored fighting vehicle as the winner of its Mobile Protected Firepower (MPF) program in June 2022. The initial contract was for 96 low rate initial production (LRIP) vehicles, the first of which were delivered in February 2024.
On 2 May 2025, Army Secretary Dan Driscoll announced that the program was cancelled due to cost, a poorly negotiated maintenance contract, its weight, and its design. The Army had taken delivery of approximately 80 of the vehicles when the program was cancelled. The vehicles have an uncertain future and may be transferred to armored units, sold abroad, or placed in storage.
