-Opportunity targets can be loaded to KGK from aircraft by the pilot.
MKEK manufactures RPG, should be one of their products
Turkish forces have stepped up buying Bulgarian products last few years,especially Jandarma(hundreds of pkm machine guns)forces so it would make sense to buy RPG rounds from Bulgaria as well.
Most likely Bulgarian made Arsenal thermobaric RTB-7MA.
I have never seen any RPG warhead like this. It might be a national thermobaric warhead.

You need lesser weapons to take out lesser targets.
Probably there is some in inventory. It comes with shelf life. Therefore, first in first out rule applies.
Turkey has Karaok(javelin type) or Omtas already, but jandarma look for less lethal weapon
Lighter weapon.
Cheap, efficient and widely available.
Indeed, carrying even Karaok to mountainous area is not an easy, and efficient task let alone OMTAS.
War isn't about fashion. Thermobaric RPG works perfectly fine for hitting rats in caves.
That's why we need lightweight switchblade equivalents at the fireteam level. 2-3 per fireteam would be sufficient.
agreed. having an Alpagu at the hand would have saved those 4 martyrs in Northern Iraq that fell to a Konkors attack.
I doubt that, you would need to use it before they fired konkrus. It means they would be already detected. We need more uav activity near our trrops in Iraq and Syria.
Thermobaric warhead like the one in the picture is not intended to stop any tank not even T-55 or any modern IFV(maybe some cold war era relics).
