This Granatnik GP mortar was manufactured by the Perkun company in the 1930s. It is a 46mm prototype and only twelve were produced. The range was between 100-700 meters. This mortar measures 23" x 12" and weighs 14 lbs. It was found in a captured German ammo dump during WWII. It is the only one known to exist.

A mortar unit with 3 soldiers, 1-2 mortar men 1 rider to drive and perhaps if only one mortar man an engineer. a way to add shoot and scoot mortars allowing them to operate closer then normal. might also lead to jeeps as a rider class as we now have riders with at guns. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=896uuC-kwuM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4r-ss-OVT4

As a concept, I think all nations could benefit from a similar squad idea, though I think the soviets will certainly take the cake with it if you see below.

I think there are better options for a bike mounted mortar system, certainly for the soviets at least.

Again for the soviets, another hilarious idea, is the paradrop-able 37mm equipped motorcycle.
