I see no problem in Japan developing a howitzer similiar in statistics to those used by other nations. I think the Afghan Tech thread has stats for a british designed mountian howitzer.

No, use the statistics based on what did exist in 1914, rather then a little worse then what existed in 1932.

150mm sounds a bit big, but I might be wrong. Just rember to research it, because as I noted else where Germany is the only power to start with modern mortars.
