The news was announced by the press service of the Ukrainian Armor company on its social media. "Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, some of our production facilities in the east of the country have been captured by the enemy. We have found a way to restore production cycles, conduct qualification tests and launch 60 mm, 82 mm and 120 mm mortars on reloaded sites," said Vladyslav Belbas, CEO of Ukrainian Armored Vehicles.

To date, the company has successfully restored and significantly increased, compared to the pre-war period, the volume of mortar production. It produces 120mm MP-120, 82mm UPIK-82 and 60mm MP-60 mortars. "We supply these products to various security agencies, both for state funding and for the funds of volunteer organizations," says Vladyslav Belbas.

As previously reported, the MP-120 mortar was adopted by the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine a month before the Russian invasion in January 2022. It partially replaced the infamous ?120-15 Molot mortars.
