The M252 is a modern American 81mm mortar. He entered service with the US armed forces in 1987. It is a weapon weighing 41.3 kilograms, range: maximum - 5940 meters, minimum - 83 meters and a rate of fire of up to 16 rounds per minute with continuous shooting. The service is composed of three people.
The M252 is the American version of the British L16A2 mortar. The M252 was commissioned by the US Army and Marine Corps to replace the M29 mortar. Compared to its predecessor, it is characterized by a significantly lower mass, which improves its mobility, greater maximum range and a slightly better rate of fire with continuous firing. In 2014, a modernized version of the M252 mortar appeared, designated as M252A1, which is characterized by a reduced tare weight of about 9 kg (from 41.3 kg to 35.8 kg). The M252 mortar most often uses 4.5 kg demolition shells. It is also possible to fire ACERM ammunition, which uses GPS guidance, which reduces the spreading radius to less than 10 meters and has an increased range of up to 9.7 kilometers. Mortars of this type were used in combat, among others, during the Operation Desert Storm (1990-1991), operations in Afghanistan and in Iraq (2003). At present, the M252 mortar is in service with the United States, Estonia, Canada and Great Britain.
