82MM (81MM) MORTAR LAUNCHER UPIK-82

Purpose

82mm mortar launcher is designed for missions targeted at direct destruction of enemy personnel and facilities at a range of up to 4.1 km.

The mortar is disassembled and transported by a 4-man crew in special packages.

Advantages in comparison with similar samples:

• utilization of high-hardness aluminium alloy for mortar base plates, which reduces its weight and improves operational characteristics;
• possibility of circular targeting without moving the base plate;
• possibility to move the firing pin in a safe position (when unloading);
• cooling ribs and increased mortar tube strength for utilization of prospective 82mm mortar rounds with increased effective range (up to 6 km);
• two times reduction of the mortar rounds lateral spread due to specifically designed traversing gear;
• equipped with double loading prevention device.
