Armament 60 mm Commando mortar Development By MKEK for use in the company's 60 mm Commando Mortar Description The MKEK M49A2 is for all intents and purposes identical to the US M49A2, which is obsolete in US service. It is a teardrop shaped, conventional bomb with a cast steel body and four gas check grooves. There are four propelling charges retained between the stabilising fins. The propelling charges are ignited by a shotgun-type ignition M5A1cartridge inserted into the fin assembly. The AZDM 111A2 impact fuze
appears to be a close copy of the similar Junghans DM 111A2 fuze. Manufacturer Makina ve Kimya Endüstrisi Kurumu.
