Ukrainian 60-mm mortar M60-16 "Kamerton" from the plant "Mayak" recognized as the worst in the Armed Forces of Ukraine

Ukrainian 60 mm mortar M60-16 «Camerton» from the factory «Lighthouse» recognized as the worst in the Armed Forces
60-mm mortar М60-16, produced at a Ukrainian enterprise “Lighthouse”, recognized as the worst of all mortars of this caliber, adopted by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This is stated in the report “Analysis of the operation of 60-mm mortars in the Armed Forces of Ukraine”.

At the moment, the Ukrainian army uses three 60-mm mortars: M57 made in Bosnia and Herzegovina, MP60, produced by a private company “Ukrainian armored vehicles” and M60-16 “Camerton” from “lighthouse”. The Ukrainian military has the fewest claims to the MP60 mortar from “Ukrainian armored vehicles”, this mortar had almost no malfunctions.

In second place is the Bosnian M57. In this mortar, there were cases of malfunctioning of the barrel mount and the tables of shots did not correspond to reality. In the third and last place is the M60-16 from the factory “Lighthouse”. This mortar has the most faults, leading to inability to shoot. Faults include failures: shock absorber on carriage, lifting mechanism, swivel handle, base plate and barrel retainer on the base plate, mortar traverse drum axis. The mortar is recognized as the worst of all.

note, that this is not the first mortar from “lighthouse”, about which they speak negatively. The plant produces the infamous 120-mm mortar M-120-15 “Hammer”, who, for the habit of exploding during shooting, was called “destroyer APU”.
