Armament US M252 ; UK L16A1 and similar mortars. Development By MECAR SA, based upon US patterns. Description The streamlined body is of high-fragmentation nodular cast iron and is fitted with a plastic obturating ring at the bourrelet. The tail assembly is of extruded aluminium and consists of a tailboom with six fins. The charge system consists of one primary cartridge fitted in the tailboom and horseshoe plastic secondary charges fitted around the tailboom in front of the fins. There are five increments in the
complete charge system. The number of charges permitted depends on the pressure rating of the mortar. Charge 0 is the primary cartridge only; Charge 1 is the Primary plus one secondary increment; Charge 2 is Primary plus two secondary increments. This is the maximum charge permitted in low-pressure mortars, for example the US M1. Charge 3 consists of Primary plus three secondary increments; Charge 4 is Primary plus four increments and is the maximum charge permitted in medium-pressure mortars, for example the US M29 . Charge 5, or Super charge, consists of the Primary plus five increments. This is only for use in high-pressure mortars such as the US M252 and UK L16A1 . It cannot be fired from low or medium pressure mortars such as the US M1 and M29 types. Manufacturer MECAR SA.
