TSM-Director of Technology and Development of PT Dahana (Persero) Yusep Nugraha Rubani revealed that the level of domestic content (TKDN) of military bomb products produced by PT Dahana has exceeded 70 percent.
"For bombs, the TKDN is more than 70 percent. For the bomb, because the casing has been made domestically, the production is also domestic," said Yusep at the Head Office of PT Dahana, Subang, West Java, Tuesday.
Military bomb products made by PT Dahana include the Sharp NATO Bomb (BNT) 250 which is designed to be compatible with NATO aircraft and the P-100L, P250L, and P-500L variant bombs which are produced specifically for Sukhoi fighter aircraft, then the R-Han122B type rocket and portable anti-tank and helicopter rockets.
