You don't take this vehicle into combat you stand off and let the 120mm mortar do the talking. You decide, would you rather shoot at someone with an M2 or would you rather stand off and kill him from miles away.

Simply being "in theatre" is going into combat!

Oh, to be sure, I'd rather do the mile away route, but it doesn't always happen that way, does it? Sometimes even mortar teams take direct fire and have to defend themselves.
Besides, getting there safely to fire those rounds is where I believe the vehicle would serve our troops better. Don't you?
