160mm?
Shouldn’t we call that a cannon by that size?

Well at least it was quick. Yes, painless death - maybe it was considered a privilege.

Shouldn’t we call that a cannon by that size? I guess no: a cannon has another operating principle.

Beheading v. hung, drawn and quartered.
Mortar round v. industrial shredder.
Pretty easy choice, right?
To: Freelance Warrior
So its an O/S thing. Like “Hi, I’m a cannon” “and I’m a mortar”

IIRC, the Soviets did have a 240mm mortar. And it was a breech-loader; I guess it would be hard to hand drop a round of that size. But I think it depends on angle. Above a certain angle, the category changes from howitzer to mortar. Any ex-gunners out there could clear this up.

It depends on the angle to?
Ah, come on. A massive breech-loading mortar.... dude, that’s a cannon!
Why the denial? does it need a therapist?

When I was a child growing up I watched looney toons for entertainment and I guess Kim Jong-un (who is still a man child) did this for his own entertainment.
They say there was to much violence in the cartoons of my day....HaaaaaHaaaaaHaaaa.

Maybe. But I don't think there's a couch big enough for it to lay on!
To: glorgau
I’d bet that it was like that video where they tried to blow up the whale. Chunks everywhere. I dunno. Being at the business end of a mortar round, I would think there'd be nothing left of him but a pink mist.

I wouldn’t want it to be upset with me, so I’ll stop teasing it now.
