They are called "Werfergranaten 21cm" = "Launchergrenades 21cm" but are often referred to as mortars because thats more or less what they are, a grenade thats tube launched by a propelling charge!
Furthermore they are time delayed so they will explode after whatever time you have set in your "rocket delay". Used for breaking up bomber formations as they had a tremendous effect in the tight US bomber boxes, spraying white hot splinters everywhere.
Have you never flown a FW190 ingame? They have had those WfrGr21s for ages! That the 109s from the G model onwards didnt have them was an omission on Oleg Maddox's side...
