Perhaps just take the standard 120mm mortar and increase its HE kill?
I have an aversion to modifying a weapon that would require the user to download an OOB to play the scenario.

That does not meant to say the AP has to have any AP effect.

But I think I gave up on using cluster ammo for VT ammo - it may have confused the AI ammo selection routines?. See the 105mm UK VT howitzer (unit #430) and its weapon - which is now a plain HE round, Weapon 234, with I think better HE kill than the regular 105, but lowered AP value. 10 years ago, that one was a "cluster bomb" weapon of some type.
Okay. I will give it a go, the 105mm UK VT Howitzer.
