Description MKEK licence produces 107 mm mortar bombs for 4.2 in M2 and M30 rifled mortars, in service with the Turkish armed forces. The MKEK bombs closely follow the US originals but a few local modifications have been introduced to suit local manufacturing processes and user requirements. The high-explosive round is the M329B1, filled with TNT and fitted with a locally produced M51A5 or M557 point detonating fuze. Maximum range is 5,500 m. To complement the HE M329B1 for training purposes, MKEK produces the TP
MKE Mod 217. This has an inert filling and weighs only 9.9 kg without a dummy fuze. Apart from the usual blue colouration, it is identical to its operational equivalent. The illuminating bomb is the M335A2, a direct copy of the US original carrying a flare and parachute assembly capable of producing 850,000 cd for 60 seconds. The fuze is the MTSQ M501. To complete their 107 mm mortar ammunition suite, MKEK produces the smoke M328A1. This is another licence-produced US bomb containing White Phosphorus (WP) which is released by a burster charge to create screening smoke when the M51A5 or M557 point detonating fuze impacts on a target area.
