The Seventy-First Mechanized was equipped with a field artillery battalion. This battalion was broken down into platoons of twenty-four soldiers equipped with autorifles and semi-portable autocannon. These weapons were fearsome, but more importantly each platoon was responsible for operating a Thumper Artillery Piece in combat.[3]
