5.7x28mm (also known as 5.7x28mm FN) is a personal defense weapon cartridge developed in 1991 by FN Herstal. It was FN's answer to the modern concept of a PDW (Personal Defense Weapon) cartridge, which was born out of a NATO request for a replacement to 9x19mm Parabellum submachine guns. 5.7x28mm was originally designed alongside two weapons, a primary weapon; the unique FN P90, and a sidearm, the FN Five-seveN, both of which are still in production as of today.
