Armament Intelligence / Mortar & Artillery
Usage history, thermal exposure, and condition-based maintenance for mortar, artillery, and launcher tubes; clamp-on, passive, removable. Nothing inside the bore. No fire-control interface. No change to baseline weapon operation. If every sensor fails, the crew still has a fully functioning weapon.
BHC-81 in active hardware build
Current Work
A clamp-on health collar for 81mm mortar systems, in active hardware build. It is the ancestor article of the tube and gun-bay families: the packaging, hardening, and edge software proven here scale to larger tubes and airborne installations.
What the crew and the maintainer get: tube usage history, thermal-exposure awareness, and maintenance planning built on what the tube actually endured, not on conservative math and a paper book.
Physical hardware is in active build.
105mm gunship cannon class · designed scale-up path
The BHC-81 grown up: the same collar concept for the largest gun flying, where every shot loads tube, mount, and airframe together. See the Air Armament page
70mm launcher clusters
Per-tube usage and expenditure accounting for the launcher fleet, the family’s smallest tubes, consumed at scale.
The Record
Firing-event and inspection history per article. Illustrative concept, not sensor data.
Thermal-exposure and condition-band concept. Illustrative, not sensor data.
Public themes only: usage history, tube-life awareness, thermal exposure, maintenance planning, and tamper-evident article history where approved. Estimation methods, fatigue models, thresholds, and installation details are deliberately not published.
Expansion Horizons
The same tube-truth problem one caliber up from the active build, a candidate host class for the collar architecture.
Towed artillery whose tube records the enterprise still keeps by hand. Architecture under evaluation.
Self-propelled fires with the same paper tube book behind the breech. Architecture under evaluation.
Expansion horizons carry no working designator, no hardware, and no schedule: they are host classes where the architecture is under evaluation. 105mm ground artillery is a further candidate class in the same category.

Armament Intelligence systems and packages are in development. Working designators, host classes, and imagery describe design intent and candidate applications, not installations, integrations, contracts, customers, or fielded capability. Pilot activity does not constitute operational fielding, procurement, or government endorsement.
