A new walkaround was added to the Weapons Section – 120mm Soviet regimental mortar M1938.
The Soviet 120 mm was the first modern 120mm mortar developed by any country, entering production in 1939. The Red Army made significant use of its heavy caliber by treating it as an artillery piece in World War II.
In the Polish Army 120mm mortars were used in infantry division’s regimental mortar batteries (8 mortars ) and in 1st Independent Mortar Brigade (144 mortars) attached to the 47th Soviet Army in Berlin.
