Description Makina ve Kimya Endüstrisi Kurumu ( MKEK ) produces 81 mm mortar ammunition of varying types. One HE bomb, intended for use with locally held M1 and M29 mortars, is a licence-produced US M43A1B1 fitted with an AZDM 111A2 point detonating fuze and containing a TNT explosive payload. This bomb has a maximum range of 3,017 m. By contrast, MKEK also produce a longer range and more modern 81 mm HE mortar bomb, the MKE Mod 214, primarily for use with the MKEK 81 mm UT1 and UT2 mortars. This bomb is much
longer than the M43A1B1 and has a more streamlined forged steel body with a plastic obturating ring. The AZDM 111A2 fuze is retained but there is a longer tail assembly housing an MKE Mod 30 primary cartridge and up to six M8 propellant increments. The MKE Mod 214 has a maximum range of 5,850 m. A practice version, the MKE Mod 238, containing an inert payload is also produced. It is ballistically matched to the MKE Mod 214. MKEK also produces an 81 mm illuminating round, the M301A2. This is another US licence-produced bomb but it is fitted with a nose-mounted MTSQ DM 93 fuze. Maximum range is approximately 2,150 m and the flare and parachute assembly can produce light for up to 60 seconds. Manufacturer Makina ve Kimya Endüstrisi.
