IMG 0198 : French Brandt 81mm model 1924/1927. Many countries used it, and this yellow paint and black markings "TD" could be Dutch.
IMG 0206 : I know it as 60mm HE for Singapore.

Here are a couple more. The 50mm looks possibly Spanish. Then some 120mm and a couple subcals, trying to confirm countries and models if possible. I have the white plastic 120mm as German, but no model recorded.

-0127 : 50mm model 1937 (Spanish) with dummy fuze
-0388 : 120mm Isreali
-0383 : 120mm sabot for subcaliber training (German). I don't know the official designation.

I figured Israeli on 0388 but didn't want to assume too much. The Google translation of the characters is "inert", and I have plenty of rounds similarly marked in English, but they aren't US.
