Overview
This HTS category, 9301.10.00.10, specifically covers artillery weapons that are self-propelled. This means the classification applies to guns, howitzers, and mortars designed to move under their own power, as opposed to being towed or manually carried. These are typically heavy ordnance designed for direct fire or indirect fire support, featuring substantial caliber and range.
Distinction from its sibling category, 9301.10.00.80 (Other), is crucial. While both fall under artillery weapons, this specific subheading exclusively applies to those with integrated propulsion systems. Therefore, a towed howitzer would be classified under the "Other" subheading, whereas a self-propelled howitzer equipped with an engine and chassis would fall under this category.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this heading relies on the explicit characteristic of being self-propelled, differentiating it from other artillery systems. Importers should ensure that the goods possess an integral motive force for classification under this specific subheading.
