Range of TOLUN-IIR guided ammunition revealed
The features of the TOLUN IIR-infrared seeker-head guided ammunition developed by ASELSAN were announced. In this context, the Infrared Seeker Guided Ammunition TOLUN-IIR can be launched from the air platform via the Multiple Transport Area (SADAK-4T). The ammunition in question has integrated KKS/ANS/IIR guidance, which can be used against moving and soft land targets, and two-way communication and man in the loop shooting mode.
TOLUN-IIR, with SADAK-4T, has 4 particle-effect warheads that can be carried in one station of the aircraft and is effective against targets at a range of 43 NM with its opening wings. Additionally, the ammunition is resistant to GNSS jamming thanks to the CRPA AntiJam antenna. The wings, which were closed before being released from the aircraft, open after a while and provide the necessary aerodynamic lift for the longest range. TOLUN IIR can be used effectively in the destruction of strategic targets with its ability to hit the desired target with high precision.
Thanks to the data link pod and the data link, two-way communication can be established between the post-shot platform and the ammunition. In this architecture, the image signal produced by the Infrared Seeker is transferred to the cockpit over the data link in the ammunition and simultaneously the commands produced by the pilot are transmitted to the ammunition. Thus, the target can be selected precisely and updated again in pilot-controlled mode.
