120mm mortars have a higher maximum elevation than 105-122mm light guns, and are thus more useful in mountaineous terrain.155mm howitzers can be sling-loaded by helicopter and moved (+sustained) in valley and on plateaus with a very good shell range.The case for the 105mm howitzer is probably strongest in Third world countries as it combines affordable ammunition with sufficient range and both direct and indirect fire capability. A 105mm howitzer on a cheap 6x4 truck would probably be perfect for African army needs.
