Combat use[edit]

Seeing as the photograph was taken on Peleliu, I'm guessing that this monster wasn't just used on Iwo Jima and in China.--172.190.68.60 (talk) 08:00, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Taki's Website mentions what's written in here, maybe he#s the source (also given as link). The Peleliu battle page in Wikipedia mentions 150 mm mortars. 87.78.212.25 (talk) 05:57, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

specs[edit]

Identical (maximum) muzzle velocity is almost impossible with different barrel lengths. it would require a conscious effort to match the MV through a tailored propellant charge (would make no sense) or a huge coincidence with different propellant charges. The MV and the rangea re almsot certainly not identical between long and short barrel versions. 87.78.212.25 (talk) 05:56, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
