Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0140053A2] The mortar capable of being mounted on a vehicle (1) by means of a baseplate (14) comprises a smooth-bore barrel tube (7), means for adjusting the position of the barrel tube in elevation and azimuth and recoil braking means. The barrel tube (7) slides in a tubular slideway (8) mounted by means of two journals (9) of horizontal axis on a cradle (10) capable of being oriented about a vertical pivot (11) fixed to a support (12). A mount (13) is arranged on the baseplate (14) so as to be tiltable about a first horizontal axis XX and has a second horizontal axis YY which is orthogonal to the first and on which the support (12) is mounted for pivoting. There are means for tilting the mount about the first axis XX and for pivoting the support (12) about the second axis YY, thus ensuring a correction of the transverse offset and of the longitudinal offset and keeping the pivot (11) in the vertical position. <IMAGE>
