Hi Antonio
The mortar shown on you photograph is not a Squid. I think it may be a Limbo which had a longer barrel and an increased range, It was developed from the Squid to meet the type XXI threat and was fitted to some destroyers soon after the end of WW2. The projectiles appear to be the same as the Squids.
Regards, Ron C.
