The test demonstrated RCGM’s capability in height-of-burst, point detonation and delay fuse modes, as well its ability to perform in all weather conditions.

GDOTS president Michael S Wilson said the test had proved the accuracy, fuse reliability and enhanced lethality of the system.

The 120mm RCGM is a low-cost, guided mortar that offers precision-strike capability using standard M934A1 mortar components, GPS guidance, M734A1 fuse components and patented roll-controlled fix canard (RCFC) technology.
