We are happy to anounce the development, and testing of a nucular morter.
This may sound dull, but it is perfect for the field unit.

At 1128 hours, we started testing on the small nucular morter.

fired off 4 in a flat area, the blast area was under 1/2 square mile, causing destruction to most light armored veicals.

fired off 2 in a semi-hilly area. the primary blast area was contained to under 3/8 sq mile, due to the hills. again a good amount of damage to light armored veicals.

fired off 4 in mountainiuos area. the primary blast site was well under 1/8 sq mile. about same results on armored veicals.

we concluded the new munition was ideal for anti-personell, in flat, and semi flat areas. recomend 1 to 2 rounds for a company sized group.
radiation was minumul, due to the fact not very much weapons grade uranium was used.

the munition is still being developed futher to produce higher yield, and no manufacturing has begun yet.

THE new morters have been tweeked enough, for the Dictatorship of Rickinstine, has declared thed satisfactort.
Production has begun.
The modifications have eliminated about 5% of the uranium used, and increased yield by 8%. :!:
cost to produce 1 is estamated at $575.32.
here is a picture of one of our modified launcher tubes.
