SP-Mortars

Unit 333 - Bv206 SP-Mortar

Bv206 SP-mortars have incorrect weapon, rate of fire and possibly crew.
According to http://www.worldlibrary.org/article/...finnish%20army the BV206 SP-Mortar is L16 81mm, Finnish designation 81mm Krh 13. Unfortunately I don't have confirmation to this and FDF pages are not up-to-date with these. However, the other option is 81mm KRH 71-96 Y, also known as 81mm KRH 90 in OOB.

81mm L16 (British BV 206) / Fin BV206 KRH 64 differences
Range: 113 / 116 (130 if KRH 71, 156 if KRH 90)
ROF: 7 / 5
Crew: 5 / 8
Ammo: 90 / 80
Speed: 17 / 18
Weight: 12 / 13

Add weapon 81mm Krh 13, copy from British OOB. Alternatively use weapon #045 or #119, 81mm Mortar 71 or 90
Adjust ROF to 7 as usual to 81mm mortars.
Adjust crew to 5 (4 mortar crew + 1 vehicle driver)
Adjust ammo load to 90 in line with the British.

334 - Nasu SP-Mortar

National defence university thesis https://www.doria.fi/bitstream/handl...pdf?sequence=2 is the source for this:
p. 19: Heitinryhmät muodostuvat kranaatinheittimenjohtajasta sekä viidestä (5) heitinmiehestä, joista yksi on oman toimensa ohella ajoneuvon kuljettaja.
"Mortar units consist of unit leader and five (5) mortar operators, of whom one is also the driver of the vehicle."

Ammo load: According to the thesis there's 4 ammo carriers for 9 firing units, carrying roughly 700 rounds or ~80 per mortar. If the true amount is something to be used then adjust ammo load, if game balance requires that units shouldn't have double the usual amount then let it be.

Modify crew: 6
