trench mortar
A trench mortar is a type of artillery weapon that was predominantly used during World War One for firing explosive shells. It was designed to be used in narrow trenches, requiring a steep angle of fire for effective use. Depending on the design, these mortars could be small and portable or large and stationary, but all were specifically meant for short-range combat.
