The US Army strives to provide Armoured and Stryker Brigade Combat Teams with rapid, precise, indirect and direct fire capabilities where the operating crew is well protected, and their physical burden, impulse noise effects and blast overpressure are significantly reduced.

Since 2020, Patria has conducted a turreted mortar feasibility study including Foreign Comparative Testing with the US Army for Patria NEMO.

NEMO is a remote-controlled mortar system capable of both direct and indirect fire missions – also on the move. It is capable of direct and indirect fire missions. It weighs around 1,900kg and offers a full 360º traverse and weapon elevation from -3° up to 85°.

The system can execute multiple rounds simultaneous impact (MRSI) fire missions with up to six rounds hitting the target at the same time. In addition to being highly protected, the system is light, compact and easily installed on light, tracked chassis, wheeled armoured vehicles or navy vessels.
