2S4 Tyulpan Weapons System Information 👇🏼
First operational with the Soviet Army starting around 1975, the 2S4 Tyulpan (Tulip) is a 240 mm self-propelled mortar, around 400 examples of which are thought to have been manufactured.
While there have been previous reports of the 2S4 being withdrawn from Russian service, on account of its limited range and low rate of fire, it’s clearly still in service, likely now mainly using the Smel’chak laser-guided projectile.
A 2S4 Tyulpan self-propelled mortar during tactical exercises held by artillery detachments of the Russian Eastern Military District at the Sergeyevsky training ground in 2017.
The 2S4 makes use of an adapted tracked chassis from the Krug (SA-4 Ganef) surface-to-air missile system, but with a more powerful diesel engine and upgraded suspension.
The system is operated by a crew of four on the vehicle itself, with another five soldiers being carried on the support vehicle, normally a 6x6 truck or an MT-LB multi-purpose armored tracked vehicle.
The smoothbore mortar is the 2B8, transported on top of the hull in a horizontal position, together with a large baseplate.
Two drum-type magazines within the all-welded steel armored hull have the capacity for 40 mortar bombs.
The vehicle has a front dozer blade to allow it to dig into its own firing position and there is a 7.62 mm machine gun for self-defense.
The two main types of mortar bomb are conventional high-explosive/fragmentation, with a maximum range of 6 miles, and high-explosive/fragmentation — rocket-assisted (with a range of 11 miles).
The Smel’chak laser-guided projectile was developed in the 1980s and has a maximum range of 5.7 miles.
This is operated in conjunction with a forward artillery observer and is guided onto the target in the terminal phase using a laser designator.
