I found this exceptional document in the Italian Luce archive - a display of Yugoslav aircraft bombs captured in Dalmatia in 1941.
No less than 6 different designs of bombs can be seen here:
1) 3 variants of a bomb of the type dropped during the Yugoslavian air raid on Graz in 1941 - see posts http://www.bocn.co.uk/vbforum/threads/99488-Yugoslavian-bomb?highlight=yugoslav and http://www.bocn.co.uk/vbforum/threads/100405-ID-needed?highlight=french+bomb
The variation are in the fins: unreinforced / circular band reinforcement / square band reinforecement (makes remember of the successive versions of the French 100kg bomb)
dimensions (based on the remnants found by al'saad in an exhibition house: overall length approx 138cm, body length approx 58cm, dia approx 25cm
2) in the rear a slender bomb seen also on the following photo of a Croatian Breguet 19
3) on the left 2 versions of a bomb with 6 fins and a circular reinforcing band, seen also quite frequently on photos of Yugoslavian Blenheims and Croatian planes, and apprently the same as seen in crates at the Mostar airport in 1941
Sadly no data for these bombs - neither weights nor exact dimensions, not even their appellations.
If we add the 12kg STankovich, the 106kg Stankovich and the large (200kg?) bomb shown in a hangar at Mostar airport, the range of Yugoslavian designed bombs is quite impressive.
