The 120mm AGS won't be developed as it was only a proof of concept. They wanted to demonstrate that a cannon that size could function on a light armored vehicle. All the lessons learned from that went into the CV90120.
Besides, with the MGS being fielded the 105mm round is back in Army service. There is no need to match the cannon to the Abrams for ammo compatibility/logistics reasons. All the AGS needs is to be fitted with BFT/digital comms and you have a finished product. Cheap and ready to go. While I am a fan of the 120mm, the 105 still has sufficient punch.
