Что (кто) такое mantlet - определение

SIEGE ENGINE

Mantlet         
  • A wicker U-shaped mantlet on wheels. Wicker was a popular material for siege defences as it was lightweight, effective and easy to construct. The wheels add further mobility which meant that the user could move forward slowly but surely.
  • A wood-planked, L-shaped mantlet on wheels.  Wooden-planked construction with proper joinery and even arrow slots would make this a more hard-wearing and expensive option. It would be heavier to push and would require more time and skill to construct; this might not be the sort one would use when attacking uphill.
  • A [[pavise]] like wicker mantlet. This is probably the cheapest and simplest option, but it would not be as hard wearing and does not offer as much cover as the other variations.
  • A wood-planked mantlet on wheels, affording the hard protection of a wooden structure but still being mobile. The lever-like handle would allow the mantlet to be pushed along and then held upright in a stationary situation.
  • The Japanese commonly used mantlets composed of bundles of blankets wrapped in a mattress to reduce the effects of shell shrapnel.  Print of Admiral Togo aboard the ''Mikasa'' during the [[Battle of Tsushima]] (May 27, 1905).
  • 6}} after the [[St Nazaire Raid]] before she exploded.
