Soviet Mortarcycle Mounted motorcycles

Soviet Motorcycle companies required mobile indirect fire support which could keep up with the rest of the unit. The solution was to make a custom sidecar to mount the 82mm mortar, and have a second motorcycle sidecar combination to transport the required additional crew. This is the version with models on the motorcycle to make a mortar on the move or about to be deployed.

The Dnepr M72 motorbike design was copied from the German BMW R-71. Continued to be produced by the Russians throughout the war, and the design was later sold to the Chinese, with variants being produced up to the modern day.

Two Motorcycle-Sidecar Combinations, one with mortar sidecar and driver, one with driver and passenger.
