AZG DAILY #19, 05-02-2011

Azerbaijan is to start production of 120-mm mortars this year.

According to APA, the mine throwers would be versatile, able to launch
both projectile and trench mortars.

Azerbaijani experts are at present perfecting the mine-throwers, which
are expected to become army weaponry in the first half of the year. A
production line to produce the mortars is already in place.

Azerbaijan is already producing Ashirirm M-5 82-mm mortars, but will
start mass production in 2011.

The mortars are to be exported to the Middle East.

Azerbaijan’s Ministry of the Defence Industry more than doubled
production in 2010.
