Penetrator Bomb (Turkish abb. NEB), which is the first concrete penetrator system developed in Turkey, is designed to be used against surface and underground targets. NEB contains Multiple Warhead Systems (MWS) technology. NEB has similar external geometry, guidance unit interfaces, mass, center of mass and intertia properties with MK-84 GPB.
High penetration performance even at low impact velocities and angles,
High fragmentation effect against secondary surface targets with pre-formed fragments utilized in Augmenting Charge design,
Programmable fuze delay times,
Usability against various target types,
Potential to be used with all guidance kits which are compatible with MK-84 (2000 lb.) GPB,
Potential to be dropped from all aircrafts which can carry MK-84 (2000 lb.) GPB.
