An expert at explosives and their applications, Mortar takes great pride in his work. Ironically, though, he has a fascination with nature in all its forms, especially when mountain climbing. An expert mechanic and pilot, he truly feels at home when working on heavy machinery. Trained in engineering, Mortar has extensive knowledge of weaponry design. He carries a machine gun with an under-slung grenade launcher in robot mode, as well as a guided mortar launcher. Transforms into a Humvee, equipped with rockets, land mines, and a mini-missile rack. Self-designed HALO Fire Control System provides firing options for his mini-missiles. They can be fired in single, tandem, or area saturation salvos. Mortar is also an avid thrill-seeker.
