The M106 carries the M168 107mm Mortar which is capable of dropping rounds on target at ranges in excess of 5000m away. In addition, it also is equipped with a close defense .50cal machine gun.<br /> <br /> ==In Team Yankee==<br /> [[File:M106 Stat Card.jpg|300px|left|thumb|The Stat Card]]<br /> This is a nice little SPG. The M30 mortar can reach out and touch enemy infantry up to 4 feet away, and it stands a fair chance of killing it even if in cover with its decent 4+ Firepower rating. The AT value is only 2 though, so you are not going to be knocking out tanks with this thing unless it is open topped and your opponent rolls really poorly. They also have the ability to do a smoke bombardment, which combined with excellent allied optics, can give your forces a big advantage. Use smoke to force the Soviet Tanks to engage on your terms, not theirs.<br /> <br /> The M106 has the same front and side armor as every other M113 based vehicle, but it has a top armor of 0 because of the massive hole cut in the top for the M30 Mortar to fire out of.<br /> <br /> A battery of 3 will cost you 3 points, and 6 for 6. Both the US and West Germans can take M106, but the Germans call theirs the &quot;M113 Panzermörser Zug&quot;.<br /> <br /> An excellent utility (smoke and pinning) artillery. Consider the M109 for killing artillery instead.<br /> <br /> ==IRL==<br /> [[File:M106 irl.jpg|300px|right|thumb|Back in Nam...]]<br /> The M106 was first fielded by the US Army in Vietnam, where it supported US efforts to dislodge the VC and ARV forces. In US Service it has since been supplanted by the M1064A3 which is almost identical to the M106 except it mounts a 120mm Mortar instead of the 107mm.<br /> <br /> {{US Forces in Team Yankee}}<br /> {{West German Forces in Team Yankee}}<br /> [[Category:Team Yankee]]</div>
