The Ukrainian military received American mortar rounds for the captured Nona 120mm mortars.

Analysts from the Tysk information resource showed footage of these ammunition being used.

2S23 Nona-SVK self-propelled mortar and 2B16 Nona-K towed mortar crews received American 1101 mortar rounds.

These 120mm mortars were captured by the Armed Forces of Ukraine during the full-scale invasion of Russia. It is also worth noting that in Ukraine there was Nona-K mortar, which was located in the Hetman Petro Sahaidachnyi National Army Academy and which probably also came into service with the Armed Forces.

The М1101 mortar rounds are delivered in a metal tube.

In the tube, there is one round equipped with a fuze and a tail cartridge inserted into the stabilizer.

On the shank, there are additional bundles of red (in the amount of four pieces), yellow (five pieces) and green (two pieces) colors.

Nona-SVK self-propelled mortar’s seizure became known in March 2022.

The mortar was captured during the battles for the liberation of settlements in the Kharkiv region.

The Ukrainian military began using Nona-K mortars last fall.

It was known that the Ukrainian military used American mortar rounds during the use of the French MO-120-RT61 120mm towed mortar.

Structurally, the RT61 consists of a rifled barrel with a breech, a baseplate, and a carriage with a wheel stroke. When firing, the wheels are not separated, which makes it easy to roll the mortar in the case of a change of position.
