A mortar is a short-barreled weapon used to fire relatively slow-moving projectiles in high-angle trajectories. An explosive shell is dropped into the tube's muzzle, and a firing pin mounted in the tube's base ignited the shell's rocket propellant. Lightweight and simple to operate, their portability and low cost have made them a favored weapon in guerrilla warfare.
