The current study investigates the asymptotic spectral properties of a finite difference approximation of nonlocal Helmholtz equations with a Caputo fractional Laplacian and a variable coefficient wave number $\mu$, as it occurs when considering a wave propagation in complex media, characterized by nonlocal interactions and spatially varying wave speeds. More specifically, by using tools from Toeplitz and generalized locally Toeplitz theory, the present research delves into the spectral analysis of nonpreconditioned and preconditioned matrix-sequences. We report numerical evidences supporting the theoretical findings. Finally, open problems and potential extensions in various directions are presented and briefly discussed.
