2B14 Podnos

The 2B14 Podnos (2Б14 "Поднос"- Platter) is a Soviet 82 mm mortar.

The 2B14 was designed in early 1980s as a light indirect fire weapon for the use of airborne and other light infantry forces.

[1] Despite the intent to field the 2B14 with light infantry units, the 2B14 appears to have been fielded with regular motor rifle units as well at a scale of six per battalion.
