Purpose

The 60 mm mortar bombs of NATO standard are intended for fire from the 60 mm Ultralight
Commando Mortar ANTOS and from 60 mm mortar ANTOS-LR. The following mortar bombs are
manufactured for 60 mm mortars:

• 60 mm HEF,
• 60 mm HEI,
• 60 mm SMK,
• 60 mm ILL,
• 60 mm ILL IR,
• 60 mm JUMP (TRAIN).:

Mortar bombs are delivered to the customer with filled both primary and additional charges and it is
stored in water-proof plastic case. Mortar bombs are packed in a wooden case, each case contains 10
pieces of mortar bombs.
60mm HEF and HEI

Bomb body is filled with TNT explosive for the HEF bomb (standard high-explosive) or with HTX
blasting explosive with thermo-baric effects for the HEI. All these bombs are equipped with the nose
fuse PDSQ according to NATO standards.

60mm TRAIN (JUMP)

60 mm training mortar bomb JUMP (TRAIN) is determined for initial training of mortar gunners
especially for weapon and ammunition preparation before firing, loading, aiming and shooting
practise. Mortar bomb JUMP is inert and has rubber fuse mock-up.

60 mm mortar bomb JUMP is reusable. Bomb is ejected from mortar barrel by means of 9 mm
TEMPO 6 ANTOS cartridge inserted into ammunition chamber of stabilizer carrier after bomb fin
stabilizer unscrewing. After shooting the bomb shall be cleaned, fin stabilizer shall be unscrewed and
spent cartridge shall be removed by tongs or screwdriver. The shooting can be repeated after new
cartridge inserting.
