Low recoil load of less than 26 tonnes
High rate of fire of up to 10 rounds per minute
Automatic Fire Contol System to enable autonomous operations
Patented Blast Diffuser to reduce muzzle blast overpressures
 
SRAMS on RG31

Continuous High Rate of Fire
Compared to existing mortar systems which can only fire up to six rounds per minute,
ST Kinetics? 120mm SRAMS can
achieve a higher sustained rate of fire. It?s semi-automatic Ammunition Transfer System
allows continuous firing rate of
up to 10 rounds per minute.
Continuous High Rate of Fire
Equipped with a Navigation and Positioning System, powered gun drives and integrated
with an automatic Fire Control
System, ST Kinetics 120mm SRAMS is able to perform autonomous fire missions with
only a three men crew. As there
is no need for a survey team and command post, there are enormous savings in terms
of manpower and equipment costs.
The high rate of fire also means that less mortar systems are required to achieve the
same fire effects
 
Lowest Recoil
Equipped with a Navigation and Positioning System, powered gun drives and integrated
with an automatic Fire Control
System, ST Kinetics 120mm SRAMS is able to perform autonomous fire missions with
only a three men crew. As there
is no need for a survey team and command post, there are enormous savings in terms
of manpower and equipment costs.
The high rate of fire also means that less mortar systems are required to achieve the same fire effects.
 
 
Safety of Troops Ensured with Patented Blast Diffuser
 
ST Kinetics 120mm SRAMS incorporates a patented Blast Diffuser that reduces the blast
overpressures. Thus the safety of troops during continuous top charge firing is greatly
enhanced

Cost Savings
Equipped with a Navigation and Positioning System, powered gun drives and integrated
with an automatic Fire Control
System, ST Kinetics 120mm SRAMS is able to perform autonomous fire missions
ith only a three men crew. As there
is no need for a survey team and command post, there are enormous savings in terms
