60 mm Mortar Bomb ILL
The design of the bomb is based on other types of mortar bombs. In order to keep the price of the illuminating ammunition at the standard level the mortar bomb is of a completely original design without using the costly time mechanical fuze. Ejection of the flare is initiated by pyrotechnic chain from the propellant charge ignition once the period determined by ballistics has elapsed. The 60 mm illuminating bombs with flares on a parachute with the range of approx. 600 m, flare burning time min. 20 seconds and luminous intensity over 250.000 Cd enable illumination of an area near the base, check-point, etc. especially at night and identification of activities in the surrounding area providing mainly deterrence of the eventual persons (not a foe) in human and non-lethal way and also recognizing movement of an enemy ensuring his elimination with live ammunition. This solution was realised under financial support from the state resources provided by the Czech Ministry of

60 mm Mortar Bomb ILL and ILL-IR
Light emission of the ILL-IR bomb flare is suppressed in visible part of spectrum and its maximum light emission is in the area of 800 to 900 nm. This 60 mm illuminating mortar bomb with flares on a parachute features range of approx. 600 m, flare burning time min. 20 seconds and luminous intensity 52 W. sr-1. This solution was realised under financial support from the state resources provided by the Czech Ministry of Defence.
Illuminating bombs are intended to support illumination of the requested area either in visible part of spectrum (ILL bomb) or IR part of spectrum (ILL-IR bomb). The design of both bombs is similar, the difference is in chemical composition of pyrotechnic mixture of the flare. Illuminating bombs are designed for the NATO standard 60 mm mortar both for combat deployment and training.

Main parts of the 60 mm mortar bomb are the bomb body, ejection tube with flare and parachute and the fin stabilizer assembly. Bomb body consists of the steel body and the ejection tube. The ejection tube includes the ejection and ignition pellet from pressed black powder and flare (light emission generator) with parachute assembly. The ejection tube mouth is closed with a cap. Calibre fin stabilizer is screwed to the rear part of the bomb. Plastic fin stabilizer ensures reliable lead of the bomb in the barrel and bomb stability during flight. Stabilizer comprises duralumin pressure case with six fins made of highly resistant plastic material processed by pressure injection method. Primary charge is placed in the pressure case enclosed by the primer screw P-1. Augmenting charge enabling higher range values is attached to the stabilizer. In case of a short-distance operation this charge may be easily removed from the mortar bomb stabilizer. Mortar bombs are delivered to the customer filled with both primary and augmenting charges sealed in water-proof plastic case. Mortar bombs are packed in a wooden case, each case contains 10 mortar bombs.
