"In addition to steel, we use bronze": a new version of the Molot mortar was presented in Ukraine

The press service of the Ukrainian Mayak plant presents a modernized version of the Molot mortar, which has received scandalous fame in Ukraine. These scandals are connected with the fact that the "Hammer" mortar was notable for its low reliability - several times it was torn apart when firing. Among other things, the use of unsuitable metal for the production of the barrel was revealed.

Earlier, Voennoye Obozreniye reported that Mayak was preparing to present a new version of the Hammer. And so, such a presentation took place.

According to the designer of the Molot plant, Alexander Gordeev, the mortar has a constant caliber of 120 mm, while the new version of the Molot differs from the original by a "significant structural improvement."

According to Gordeev, the mortar is equipped with "reinforced shock absorbers", which allows "more convenient transportation." It is also reported that the new version of the "Hammer" allows you to fire not only from the ground, but also from asphalt or concrete.

At Mayak they are talking about the completion of the mechanism for preventing double loading, about the work on the use of anti-corrosion materials.

Plant press service:

In particular, in addition to steel, we also use bronze.

During the tests from the new version of the mortar "Hammer" carried out, as stated, five thousand shots.

According to the test, "the mortar's reliability was confirmed." Soon he will begin to enter the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Well, that’s all ... now you will have to install a sentry for each mortar, so that the bronze is not dragged away ...

They took it off the tongue. Then from the surrendered non-ferrous metal to make new mortars. The scheme is interesting.

[Reserve buildbat]

They just replaced their crafts from raw iron with Soviet parts from storage warehouses.

[wow]

That's right, they scam everything that comes to hand. And as "non-ferrous", even more so! The mentality of the "Ukrainian people" is indestructible. Although how to say, maybe together with this "people"?

Curiously, how is 5 mines consistent with the consumption of ammunition in Donbas and the import of shells?

There, the point is, the coefficient of thermal expansion of bronze allows it to play the role of a damper for steel, and keep the pipe from wear and distortion, by the difference in thermal expansion.

Bronze is actually a much more complex material than steel. There are grades of gun-grade bronze that can be used as a material for rifled barrels, but their price will be higher than titanium. Doubt the non-brothers created a bronze or composite mortar barrel. I will assume that we are talking about a mechanism from a double loading or sight bar.

refinement of the mechanism for preventing double loading, on the work on the use of anti-corrosion materials

This is how many "Hammer" had to grind their own, so that the designers finally undertake to modify it? All through one place in this "independent country".

[Lipchanin]

So, in my opinion, this article about 2 weeks ago was already
I also left my comment under this one

It is also reported that the new version of the "Hammer" allows you to fire not only from the ground, but also from asphalt or concrete.

I said that apparently the punishers are preparing for urban battles in the Donbass, since the ability to shoot from asphalt and concrete in the field is not needed

[Crimean partisan 1974]

apparently the punishers are preparing for urban battles in the Donbass, ... come on Seryoga, .. with such a degradation of the Alliance in Nau, this is tantamount to death ... here we are talking about a pinch from the tanga treasury, and this is not a breakthrough product created by the team a real hairy hand at a high level in military circles ... won, the chen did not really think about when they sawed the gimbal of KamAZ vehicles with an inner diameter of 82 mm, just under 82 mm mine, and so many things were collected on the knee and the main thing was effective ... and here ... walk the field ... just shake the treasury ... especially when the clown junkie was the grandmother herself ordered

Well, they don't think so. And their owners don't just arm them
At any moment the FAS command can follow.

[Crimean partisan 1974]

And the extras will go to the last Sumerian .... it's unlikely ... times have changed too much ... mainly if the upper echelons of the military live at ease. then the lower echelons, arriving in their native land, enlightened that they were being thrown by everyone without satisfaction. from the clerk in the bank, to higher and higher ... but freebies and looting are a thing of the past ... and they did not forget how they boiled in cauldrons ... so those who wanted to sacrifice themselves to the junta dramatically decreased ... this is confirmed by the fact so that the military units of the platoon in the mouth are literally reduced quite officially due to the undersupply of l, s ... and the trend is increasing ... so only our own treasury remains to be cut

Only the most stubborn natsyks will react to the command "face".
The rest will have to be driven in the back with machine guns and they will surrender in batches.
I think so.

The mortar's reputation is still damaged, even if it has been upgraded. Even with a new mortar, the crews would be wary of using it. Life is more precious.

In addition to steel, we use bronze ... Or maybe it's a mess? It would be necessary: ​​"We use bronze by steel ..."?

They invented the bronze clutch cool, whatever you say the guys are there. When the barrel heats up, it compresses without missing distortion.

Of course it is. They buy the cheapest steel from the Indian huckster-scavengers, and we stupidly steal the bronze, because we are crazy)))

why not aluminum. but what, it would be cool))) even I, 13 years old, didn’t think of making a samopal from a bronze tube. I took a thick steel))

They write nonsense, there would be only one and a very significant drawback: because of the disgusting quality of steel, an explosion occurred in the bore of the mortar. And then again they write shock absorbers, but they picked up a new paint .............. ... so the main flaw has been eliminated or not?

[xomaNN]

This mortar was developed and produced in the USSR almost in the 60s. And the "uk..r. Improvers" with their modernizations only worsen the weapon. Is that uk..r. to paint it with patterns?
