text:
The 20 cm leichter Ladungswerfer was a spigot mortar used by Germany during World War II. It was used by engineers to demolish obstacles and strongpoints. It was gradually withdrawn from front-line service from 1942. Propellant was placed at the top of the spigot and ignited when the projectile slid far enough down the spigot to complete the circuit. It fired HE and smoke rounds in addition to a special Harpunengeschosse that carried a rope with hooks to clear mines or wire obstacles.
