No it is not.

If it shows a mortar Icon it's a "gun" if it shows just the "crew" as infantry it's a DF.

The formation it is in is Para Pl DW[A].....DW indicated it's set up as " detached weapons"...ie a formation that has it support weapons outside the platoon instead of integrated into it.
When opening the unit and looking at the details it is listed as: 60mm DF mortar and indeed only fires direct, cannot be called in by a FOO. The DF stands for direct fire doesn't it? If there are two classes of direct fire (gun class vs crew class) only then they will have to be distinguished somehow.

Thanks for the explanation about carrying, I did know that already but very helpful to anyone else who may be following this thread.
This OOB was reworked some years ago with the DW formations added. This is the first complaint....maybe your the first one to use it.....IDK but right now I can see one of two things has happened--- he has either assigned the wrong weapon to that unit OR the wrong unitclass .

So.......sometime before the next release I will dust off my crystal ball and try to figure out what the intent was and what the error is..... all I did was see the mortar Icon and that's the sign it's an indirect class but something's been mixed up and I will sort out what it is
