Georgia, Gori, 13.08
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

That is 2B9 (to be read as 2V9) Vasiljok 82 mm automatic mortar. Rate of fire 40-60 rounds p.min., 4 rounds "mag" fired in 2 (tac-tac-tac-tac) sec. Able to engage targets by direct/undirect fire. One picture more (can you see universal tool?): forum.valka.cz/files/2b9.jpg God bless opposing infantry.

My platoon had a motto "What We Do Not Understand - We Destroy" and the optional "If Violence Will Not Do The Trick - Apply More Violence" ... so a sledgehammer did come in handy at all times Smile
