Roketsan LAÇİN Guidance Kit and Its Strategic Importance

January 15, 2021

Adding a new one to its range of guidance kits that will guide free-falling bombs fired from aerial platforms, Roketsan named its new product with IIR/TV guided (CCD image sensor, a newer technology product is used instead of CMOS image sensor) searcher head, called LAÇİN. The Roketsan LAÇİN Guidance Kit stands out as a strategic ammunition.

LAÇİN Guidance Kit applied on the MK-82 bomb; While it provides significant advantages compared to the guidance kit with a semi-active laser seeker head named TEBER, it will also bring some price increase and disadvantage. It is possible to understand that the IIR seeker head of the guidance kit, which we think is using a 3rd generation uncooled microbolometer, will operate at LWIR or VLWIR (very long wave infrared. 12-30 μm) wavelength, considering that it will be left at an altitude of 20,000 – 40,000 feet.

The system, which allows hitting even low-speed moving targets without entering dangerous areas protected by short-medium range air defense systems and without the need for laser illumination, allows LOAL (Lock-on after launch) and target update thanks to the bidirectional data link with a range of 150 km. will provide. The system, which transfers the image it receives to the pilot's screen over the data link, will have a structure that can transmit the guidance and corrections by the pilot to the ammunition via RF.

The range of the guidance kit, which has a maximum range of 28 km, can be increased to 100 km by integrating it with the wing guidance kit in the future.

SERT-82

The variety of precision-guided ammunition, which will also be used in SİHAs such as AKINCI and AKSUNGUR, will attract the attention of foreign customers and make a great contribution to the export rate. In addition, the guidance kit can also be used in the bunker-piercing SERT-82 ammunition developed by TÜBİTAK SAGE over the MK-82, which does not have any pre-piercing and penetrates its target with its kinetic energy.

Considering that SERT-82 ammunition can penetrate up to 1 meter against concrete blocks made by compressing under 350 bar (3,569.006,7kgf/cm²) pressure, it is highly concentrated with LAÇİN-TEBER guidance kits by armed unmanned aerial vehicles that provide close air support to residential area operations. will be used.
