60 mm Mortar Bomb TB 60C

NSN:1310-50-001-5717 (AF610)

 

The Thermobaric Mortar Bomb TB 60C is intended to be used with any type of smooth bore 60 mm Mortars of NATO Standard – such as COMMANDO Mortar M60CMA, M60MA, M2 and M19, BRANDT model 35, Tampella, Thompson Houston – Hotchkiss – Brandt Commando, M-57, M6H and M6C Hirtenberger, etc., and designed for combined defeating, both by air-blast and thermal action, of enemy manpower in urban areas, fortifications, transport means, and in the open.

 

Upon impacting a target, the fuze AF610 gets activated and initiates the bursting charge which, in its turn, disperses the thermobaric composition TBC-2. The thermobaric composition TBC-2 interacts with the oxygen from the air; an air-fuel composition is generated which detonates from the bursting charge. A zone characterized with overpressure and intense heat is created in the area.

This Mortar Bomb is fuzed with AF610 (Point detonating, super quick action, boresafe type, muzzle safety distance 40 m) fuze.
