The 120 mm Brandt m35 was used in limited quantities during the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_France" title="Battle of France">Battle of France</a> and exported to the USSR and other nations before the country's capitulation in 1940. The Soviet <a href="/wiki/M1938_mortar" title="M1938 mortar">PM 38</a> 120 mm mortar, were captured in large quantities during the war in the East and pressed into service by the Germans and other Axis nations before the introduction of similar nationally produced 12 cm mortar designs.

Because of the greater weight of the weapon (280 kilograms or 620 pounds) a two-wheeled axle was utilized, enabling the mortar to be towed into action. The axle could then be quickly removed before firing.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.
