Soviet Mortars
Does anyone know what sizes of mortars Soviet forces should have during the Twilight War?
Thanks.

82, 120, 160 and 240mm I believe. The latter two being rather rare Divisional assets from memory.

the 240 mm is a Army/front asset.

Rare fact. The Mortars, howitzer, gun, ADA, Anti-tank guns, and MRL were all formed into Batteries/Battalions/Regiment system and in a MRD and TD there were more Batteries than there were Rifle Companies in MRD and more Batteries than Tank Companies in those either Division. Where as Mortar Platoon from NATO would be considered a Battery.

Thanks for the info.
Does anyone know if the Soviet 82mm mortar would be the 82-PM-41 (aka the M-41 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/82-PM-41) or was this replaced with a newer model? If so then does anyone know its designation? Thanks.

I believe there's a number of models, some old, some newer but all used by various units. You could probably justify almost any of them with a little thought.
