The round with 81 mm mortar bomb fitted with thermobaric warhead for L16A1, US
M1 and M8-111 mortars is intended for defeating the enemy manpower in the open,
in urban built-up areas, in fortifications, bad country and vehicles. It causes heavy
damage and impossibility to deliver combat thus minimizing civilian casualties.
At burst, the mortar bomb creates a peak of overpressure of 50 kPa in a radius of
minimum 5 m from the hit point in an open ground or a closed room with a volume
of 60 m3.
The blast wave is propagated copying the surface contour. In the burst zone, oxygen
"ignites" and the temperature goes up beyond the limit of 800°C.
