AMOS Mortar Company*
*
The AMV AMOS is a twin-barrel 120mm mortar vehicle used in the readiness brigades (brigade 2005) trained in Pori Brigade and Karelian Brigade. 24 of these vehicles were ordered and they are to form mortar companies to the battalions.*
*
The company has 4 vehicles (8 tubes total). The company has superior rate of fire compared to the old towed 120mm mortar. The company is ready to fire in 30 seconds from stopping and it can also fire in multiple rounds simultaneous impact (MRSI) -mode, that causes devastation in uncovered infantry targets on splash. The company also has the advantage of superior mobility, so once fired the vehicles can relocate before the grenades impact on the target. This makes the AMOS company a real pain to locate and destroy with counter-battery fires.*
