Does anybody know what the actual range is here?

No, maybe the double. It fly higher and faster to the release point.

Does anybody know what the actual range is here?

probably same/similar range as Ground Launched Small Diameter Bomb, which has a range of 150kms

Previous newspiece about this, was all about the use of a Delta-V sounding rocket, to place the Tolun munition at such a distance and altitude that, it would negate the need to use an aircraft, hence not putting both the aircraft and the pilot in danger.

The smaller of the Delta-V rockets was able to put the missile at an altitude over 100km when launched vertically.
At an angled launch whereby 12-13km altitude is the limit and the launch speed is more moderate, the range of this rocket can easily be doubled, even tripled. After releasing Tolun at altitude, the winged munition should further travel a good 100km whilst gliding without propulsion.
This is in a way such a strategically important weapon that it’s real range will most likely be kept under wraps. We can only speculate.

I have no official Source, but it's likely possible such a Programm is under way.

Interesting, is that an RPG warhead equivalent? Looks different than the real photo below.

Loitering Munitions Will Have Different Capabilities

MKE Deputy General Manager Ümit Kıyak announced that, in light of recent global developments, they have rolled up their sleeves to produce a family of loitering munitions. Stating that they are working on a total of 5-6 types of munitions, Kıyak continued:

“As you know, the biggest enemy of loitering munitions is jammers, which are also known as signal disruptors. First, we are developing a munition that will destroy these. You launch it into the air, and it attacks wherever it detects a signal.

After that, you can use your drone systems more freely on the battlefield. At this point, as MKE, we will produce three types of GPS-guided loitering munitions—short, medium, and long-range.”

Looks like the one in that picture from the test is the anti-jammer one.

MKE'den kritik adım: Dolanan mühimmat geliyor

Türkiye’nin en köklü savunma sanayii firmalarından MKE harp sahasının değişen dinamiklerine hızla ayak uyduruyor. MKE Genel Müdür Yardımcısı Ümit Kıyak, TRT Haber’e özel açıklamasında 'dolanan mühimmat ailesi projesi' geliştirdiklerini ve ilk testlerin mart sonunda başlayacağını duyurdu.

I hope this (or other loitering munitions that are coming) evolve into something like:

Saturate the ever loving fuck out of the battlefield if necessary. And another version that could be put on a 4x4 would be nice as well, for mobility.

I looked up their ranges (e.g. HERO-400, 60 km) and i think it doesn't make sense to bring such a big quantity of drones, concentrated in one place, close to the enemy. One good hit and they are all gone.

That Loitering Munition made by MKE, is cheap to produce and the Trailer can be pulled by a singe Toyota Pick - Up. This is the Ideal Weapon for the new Syrian Army !
