Ukrainian 120mm mortar team fires a defective round
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.Text and video taken from the V Kontakte page of Armed Forces of Novorossiya (AFN) Ukrainian mortars and artillery were one of the few bright spots of the Ukrainian defense against the Russian invasion. [VK] Another example of a defective 120mm mortar mine of Ukrainian manufacture, supplied to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. After firing, the mine flew only a few meters and fell on the roof of a barn where the mortar crew was hiding. The footage shows one of the reasons for this outcome - half of the main propellant charge is simply filled with cardboard instead of propellant, which does not burn completely and results in a colossal undershoot.
