120 Krh/40 is a 120 mm mortar developed by the Finnish company Tampella (now Patria Vammas).

The 120 Krh/40 first entered service in 1940 after being ordered the previous year by Finland. It was exported to Sweden between 1941 and 1944 and later produced under license there. A total of 219 were exported by Tampella.[1] The Swedish military calls them 12 cm granatkastare m/41 and they have continued to serve as the standard heavy mortar of the Swedish Army. In 1956, their base-plates were replaced by Swedish-manufactured Hotchkiss-Brandt M-56 baseplates.[2] As of 2016, 165 m/41D are still in service in the Estonian Land Forces[3] and 22 are held by the Lithuanian Armed Forces.[4]

They got a major increase in lethality when the STRIX top attack anti armour round was introduced in the 1990s; it is a smart weapon that homes in on the IR signature of armoured vehicles.
