81 mm Illuminating Ammunition
The 81 mm illuminating ammunition is a special-purpose round
designed to illuminate wide areas during night operations. Launched by a mortar
to the target area, it deploys a parachute at a designated altitude and
illuminates the battlefield for an extended period. It provides a critical
operational advantage in night assault operations, search-and-rescue missions,
and border surveillance.
