NEB-T
Thermobaric Variant of Penetrator Bomb
The NEB-T, a thermobaric variant of the NEB bomb was developed by filling the TSP-103 thermobaric explosive into the NEB munitions follow through bomb. The NEB-T, thermobaric bomb, which has both a augmenting charge and a follow through bomb, penetrates through obstacles such as concrete thanks to its augmenting charge, and creates an increased pressure effect especially in closed areas with detonation of the thermobaric explosive in follow through charge.
