==Description==
The '''Mech Mortar/2''' is the second-smallest of the [[Mech mortar|Mech Mortar]] systems developed. Based on the weapon used by infantry for centuries, it fires a small shell in a high arc that falls onto the target. Though the Mech Mortar was created by the [[Terran Hegemony]], by the time of the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]] it had been relegated to history. It has been replaced in most military forces by the [[LRM-10]], which offers five times the salvo size.

With the reintroduction of the [[anti-missile system]], engineers revived the Mech Mortar concept. The munitions used by the mortars, though often possessing limited guidance packages, weren't destroyed by AMS systems in tests.
