Maneuvering through challenging obstacle courses,
Navigating the intricacies of the medical lane,
Tackling precise mortar tasks,

When 'drop it like it's hot' takes on a whole new explosive meaning 💥💣

Mortar Soldiers need to know how to use more than just their tubes, they must also be proficient on a wide variety of small arms to ensure their security on the battlefield.
The M240B is useful in a variety of settings, for example on a Mortar Carrier Vehicle.
