Corresponding units should have ROF 3 due to lack of recoil mechanism (actual rate of fire was even lower, but most WW1 vintage field artillery pieces have a highly optimistic ROF in SPWW2, even the ones with a recoil buffer). Available since April 1940.

It's better to add Polish-modified 120 K/78-31 (weapon 96 from Polish OOB, but range 13km = 203) - see
http://derela.republika.pl/120mm_wz78-09-31.htm and

Apart from a Polish photo 21171, a proper picture seems 23599.

The modernized Polish gun was a better weapon no doubt. However, the Finnish Army had only 24 of them, but 72 of the non-modernized 120mm K 78 FG. Because we can't add every gun that was in the inventory, I think the latter should be added (if anything), because it was more significant historically. 120 K/78-31 could be added to WinSPMBT, since they remained in reserve until late 1960's.
