Abstract
A sighting assembly for a mortar employed in handheld mode. The sighting assembly is attached to the discharge end of a mortar tube by a mounting collar. The collar includes first and second distance indicator dials that employ a pointer to indicate the distance a mortar projectile will travel at different mortar angles and charges. The sighting assembly further includes structure allowing a compass to be locked in a housing by a first cam lever. The entire housing pivots about a cam bolt attached to a second cam lever that can lock the housing in a position parallel to the ground at any angle the mortar is positioned. This will allow a measurement of azimuth to a target to be taken. The azimuth and distance measurements can be used to deliver a mortar projectile to the target while keeping the target in the mortarman's line of sight.
