The Expal ‘One-Stop Shop’ includes mortar systems, fire control systems, ammunition, mini UAVs – for aerial reconnaissance – and tactical training simulators. All of them coordinated and serving the same mission.
During the demonstration EXPAL´s technicians gave a technical explanation on the effectiveness of EIMOS (EXPAL Integrated Mortar System), TECHFIRE (EXPAL’s fire control system), SHEPERD-MIL (EXPAL’s mini UAV as Unmanned Forward Observer) systems and SIMOX, the training tactical simulator for mortar units, before coordinating the execution of the different exercises. Mortar fire support implies: observing, aiming, deciding and acting. These requirements are covered by the industry, but not always as a complete solution, being the customer the one integrating all the different elements and creating a complete system. Something similar happens if we focus on the logistic needs. With this complete vision of all the needs that are demanded, EXPAL has been working on giving global solutions not only to the operational needs, but also to logistic needs integrating all of them into the 'One-Stop Shop' concept for mortar systems. EXPAL 'One-Stop Shop' for mortar systems is a new and unique solution able to provide armies with a complete offer giving answer to all operational and logistical needs demanded by a mortar unit. This encompasses weapons, ammunition and associated systems (operational needs), as well as, training, maintenance and phase-out at the end of its live cycle (logistics needs).

EXPAL improves observation with a mini-UAV called SHEPHERD-MIL, increasing aiming and decision making with EXPAL’s fire control system, TECHFIRE, both individually operational and, as well, being able to integrate them in in-service upper level battle management systems. EXPAL improves the acting phase with its light mortars and its EIMOS, EXPAL’s mortar system integrated on a 4X4 lightweight vehicle. The company also provides one of the widest ranges of ammunition in the market. All of these products and systems are integrated and can work together.
