FN Herstal was the first small arms manufacturer to respond to NATO's requirement; FN started by developing a shoulder-fired personal defense weapon, the FN P90, along with a small caliber, high velocity 5.7×28mm cartridge type. [1] The original 5.7×28mm cartridge, called the SS90, went into production with the P90 in 1990. [24]
