M16A4/M4 winner

Latest news! As alluded in our earlier posting “Assault Rifle Musical Chair” the M16A4/M4 combo has been announced as the preferred candidate to become the Malaysian Army standard issue assault rifle.
And its the M4 that is to be the main AR for the Malaysian Army combat units. The M16A4 will probably be issued together with the M203 for the units. It will also be used for ceremonial (marches) purposes.
Both rifle are excellent weapons. Easy to use in jungle and urban conditions.
It is equipped with a removable carrying handle which meant that the Malaysin Army which have been using the Steyr AUG1 with its fixed optic for the last 15 years or so wants that capability to be retained.
Now can someone tell me if the training called for aimed fire or not?
