Patria

NEMO, a single barrel self propelled smoothbore
120mm mortar system, developed by Patria is augmenting the twin-barrel
AMOS system currently in service. NEMO
uses an unmanned turret suitable for most current wheeled APCs as
well as lightweight, high speed vessels. Weighing 1.5 ton, The system
offers high accuracy and can be operated autonomously, without complex
fire preparations. NEMO can fire a first round within 30 seconds
from vehicle stop and could immediately exit from firing position
after the last shot, minimizing the risk of enemy counter-fire.
The mortar can be aimed for indirect or direct fire, and, by employing
MRSI fire, can engage a target with six bombs simultaneously. Precision
fire will also be realized in the future, with new precision guided
mortar munitions (PGMM) Patria is developing for its 120mm mortars.
the turret is designed with advanced signature management techniques
and armor protection.
