A 'silent' short-range mortar system, the 2B25 Spigot, has been spotted in Ukraine being used by Russian forces.

Unlike other mortars, the weapon is said to be only as loud as a suppressed 7.62x39mm round being fired from a Kalashnikov rifle.

And, according to a promotional video for the 2B25, the weapon was designed to produce less sound and not create as much light once fired, therefore hiding its location.
