Class 200 – Mortar Subtype A

Poland 206 (and 204 in the next class) appear to be the only mortars in existence with an AP round. I have no information on the M98, it just looks out of place, especially with nothing to improve its accuracy.

50-60mm – N.Korea 597, Canada 270-273 and Cambodia 596-598 have Size 0, all others have 1.
Canada 270-273 have 2 Crew, Nicaragua 510 has 4, Denmark 95-97 have 7, standard is 3. France 407 & 408 have 3 Crew for 2 mortars, standard is 6. However, the Canadian units also have only 30 Weapon 1 rounds (standard is 60), hence maybe the size and crew.
Israel 535 has Speed 6, for a 52mm, standard is 4.
China 99, 100, 102 & 103 have Speed 5 for a 60mm, standard is 3.
ARVN 520, Greece 340-342, Turkey 400, Brazil 558-560, Thailand 561 & Ethiopia 79 have RoF 9, all others have 8.
Brazil 558-560 have 45 Weapon 1 (mortar) rounds, standard is 60.

81/82mm – ARVN 524, Belgium 459, Czech 510-513 and Libya 235-238 have RoF 8, standard is 7.
USMC 272 & Argentina 505 have Size 0, others have 1.
Italy 800 has 4 Crew for 2 mortars, Jordan 574 & 575 have 6, Belgium 459 has 7, standard is 8. USMC 270 & 271 have Crew 8 for 1 mortar, standard is 4.
Nigeria 592, Kenya 412, Sudan 251 & 252 and Uruguay 460 have Speed 3, standard is 2. However, they also only carry 40 Weapon 1 rounds, so this may be a trade-off.
PLO 65 has Speed 1, China 101 has 3, but no trade-off.
Sudan 253, Bulgaria 474-477 and Somalia 64 have Weight 1, Sweden 424 has 3, standard is 0 (even for multiple mortars).
Brazil 561-563, Chile 580 & 581 and Sudan 253 have 35 Weapon 1 (mortar) rounds, Australia 309-312, NVA 188, Green 453 & Rhodesia 140 have 40, standard is 50. NB also applies to Weapon 2 for Australian units.

107mm – Uruguay 461 has Speed 0, Peru 587 has 2, all others have 1.
Ecuador 547 & Nicaragua 513 have Weight 0, all others have 1.
Libya 239 has RoF 7, all others have 6.
Uruguay 461 has 35 Weapon 1 (mortar) rounds, Chile 582 has 30, all others have 40.

120mm – Russia 563 & 566 have Crew 12, standard is 6. PLO 66 has Crew 8 for 2 mortars, standard is 12.
Egypt 512 & Russia 815 have Crew 5 and Weight 1, all others have 6/2. The Russian unit has a different weapon (2B18) which would account for the crew difference, but AFAIK it is considerably heavier than the M1943.
Russia 815 & NVA 189 have 30 Weapon 1 (Mortar) rounds, all others have 40.

240mm – Syria 78 has 15 Weapon 1 (Mortar) rounds, standard is 20.
