2B25 Gall
2B25 "Gall" is a Russian silent portable mortar. It was developed at the Burevestnik Central Research Institute in Nizhny Novgorod. It was demonstrated to the general public in 2011 at the MILEX-2011 arms exhibition held in Minsk. It is currently being mass-produced, albeit it is generally only being issued to special operations units in small quantities.
A distinctive feature of the 2B25 is the absence of the standard firing pattern when firing. This effect is achieved by using a specially designed 3VO35E fragmentation round. When fired, the powder gases are locked in the mine’s tail, thus creating no flame, smoke or shock wave, and the volume of the 2B25 shot is comparable to that of a Kalashnikov rifle fired with a silencer.
The mortar is capable of engaging targets at ranges from 200 to 1500 metres, with vertical firing angles ranging from +45 to +85 degrees and horizontal angles of fire being 360 degrees. The weight of the 2B25 does not exceed 13kg. Service crew is 2 persons. The rate of fire is up to 15 rounds per minute.
Among the downsides of the mortar are very short range and bulkiness of the ammunition.
The mortar uses a CSW system, which requires the operator to load every mine manually into the barrel. The mines come packaged in crates, each crate containing 4 mines, and have to be first taken out of the crate before they can be fired.
The mortar can be disassembled into two pieces – the mortar plate and the mortar itself, both of which go into the launcher slot.
