Most mortars are muzzleloaders. The mortar tube is a piece of pipe with a firing pin permanently fixed at the base. When the mortar round is dropped into the tube, the primer in the base of the round strikes the firing pin, and the round shoots out the other end. The Russians have fielded breechloading mortars. These are nothing but huge. The LITTLE one fires a 160mm round through a three-meter tube--the tube is in two sections, and the round is placed in the lower, hinged section. (160mm is larger than almost all of their howitzers and guns.) The big one is the 240mm 2S4, which has two exotic rounds available to it. The first is a laser-guided round; this round was used to devastating effect in Afghanistan during the Soviets' war there. The second is a nuclear round.
