Mortar Emplacement is a Specialty Building for the Mortar Tower added in an update to Bloons Tower Defense 5 on the 21st of June, 2012. It costs 
750 to purchase initially and it increases the cost of Dartling Gun by 5%.
Bloons TD 5 Upgrades[]
- The initial upgrade reduces the cost of Mortar Towers and their upgrades by 5%, costing
750 - The second upgrade costs 750 and increases Mortar attack speed by 10%.
- The third upgrade costs 1000 and briefly stuns all bloons hit.
- The fourth upgrade is exclusive to Bloons TD 5 Mobile, costing 1000. It allows the Mortar Tower to auto-aim and shoot like a regular tower. (Note: This upgrade will still allow a Set Target option; on the First setting, tap the left priority button and it will use the normal Mortar targeting option)
Tips[]
- The third upgrade allows the Mortar Tower to stun bloons for about the same time as a Bomb Tower with Bloon Impact. This is extremely useful for the Artillery Battery because of its fast firing speed.
- With upgrade three, 2 2/4 Mortar Towers near a Monkey Intelligence Bureau can pop near infinite Ceramic Bloons.

Trivia[]
- The stun effect introduced to the Tier 3 Mortar Emplacement has likely inspired the Shell Shock upgrade in Bloons TD 6, which creates secondary explosions that can stun bloons close to the center of the main explosion.
