ESP - EXPAL M-08 Combi (60mm mínomet)

Under the name EXPAL M-08 Combi, the Spanish company Expal's 60 mm calibre mortar is introduced in the Hungarian Defence Forces.


The manufacturer's website lists 3 mortars of this calibre without giving further details
- 60 mm M-86 Mortar, Asymmetric Bipod
- 60 mm M-99 Mortar, Symmetric Bipod
- 60 mm Comando Mortar.


Since it is clear from the photos of the mortar that it is a symmetric mortar, I assume that the M-08 Combi is either an M-99 or a Commando mortar.



According to the information from the Hungarian site, the mortar has a range of 3800 / 4900 m (depending on the barrel length used, 0.65 / 1 m) and a theoretical rate of fire of up to 35 rpm. The weight of the mortar is 18.63 kg in the combat position and less than 20 kg in the transport position.


The mortar has been in the Hungarian Defence Forces arsenal since the beginning of 2013, the tender was launched in 2011.
