The shell body, which carries two sensor-fuzed submunitions, is provided with a basebleed, giving ranges out to 35km. Each of the sensor-fuzed submunitions can defeat a target. Once BONUS is launched the warhead searches a 200 m diameter area. Immediately a target is detected within the footprint, it is destroyed by an EFP (Explosively Formed Penetrator) punching through its roof and devastating its interior.

BONUS detects and identifies targets by processing images received from IR sensors ranging over several frequencies and then combining the results with data received from a laser radar (LADAR).

By measuring the target profile and then comparing it with the results received from the IR sensors, combat-worthy targets can be separated from false ones.

This combination of sensors also means that BONUS is effective against targets provided with both passive and reactive protection systems.
