The Thai Ministry of Defense has unveiled a new 120mm wheeled self-propelled mortar system called Autonomous Truck Mounted Mortar (ATMM), developed in collaboration with Elbit Systems to provide fire support for infantry units.
The ATMM is based on a 4x4 military truck chassis manufactured by TATA which is fitted with a new cargo platform with a thickness of 7mm able to carry Elbit's SPEAR 120mm mortar system.
Elbit Systems' SPEAR is equipped with advanced fire control, navigation, automatic aiming and propulsion systems, which facilitate a fully-autonomous operation and provide increased firepower and accuracy – within 30 meters of the Circular Error Probability (CEP) radius.
The ATMM has a crew of four and can be ready to fire from road position in less than two minutes. It has a maximum firing range of 6.5 km and has a rate of fire of 10 rounds per minute.
