The officials further said that explosives with higher TNT equivalence have more lethality and destructive power. “The performance of any explosive is measured in terms of TNT equivalence. Explosives with higher TNT equivalence have more lethality and destructive power. Conventional explosives, like DENTEX/TORPEX, which are used in conventional warheads, aerial bombs and many other ammunitions worldwide have the TNT equivalence of 1.25-1.30”, officials further added.
