Gezgin is interesting as it says testing and because its ALCM as well as a LACM
And Tayfun has at least 4 variants with ranges between 600 and 1000-2000km
Cenk Submarine launched!!!

Gezgin is meant to be a turbofan while there is no turbofan engine announced yet and Arat engine is turbojet. However while Arat is cited as a turbojet engine it is defined to be a more efficient engine which actually suggests a turbofan engine.

So far this is all we know '' as of 2023 We have started conceptual studies of such a turbofan engine''

Turkish defense industry company Kale Arge announced that it has started development activities for the 'Turbofan Missile Engine'. Thus, Türkiye will be able to develop longer-range cruise missiles. Kale Arge General Manager Cüneyt Kenger, answering the questions of SavunmaSanayiST regarding the issue, made important statements. Kenger emphasized that turbofan engines have higher fuel efficiency than turbojet engines, and on the other hand, they are heavier. Referring to Kale Arge's experience in the field of turbojet missile engines with the KTJ-3200, KTJ-1750, KTJ-3700 and ARAT Projects, Cüneyt Kenger said, "I would not say that we should gradually switch to turbofans, but we consider it to be the right time to add turbofans to our portfolio. We have also started working on turbofans." We are here, as of 2023. When we say turbofan, we mean small and expendable engines for missile platforms, as per our mission. "We have started conceptual studies of such a turbofan engine." he said.

Its just teber guidance kit for all mk series bombs and with the option of small wings to increase performance for UAVS to reduce drag.

Are there any updates on the Cenk MRBM? Been a long time since we last heard anything about it after all the focus shifted on Tayfun Block-4.

@TheInsider
There is nothing that can be confirmed by anyone as of now as the project is highly confidential but we can still speculate if we have a look at Tayfun project. Cenk project will be a long journey. There will be more variants compared to the Tayfun project. Range, speed, capability, and warhead will differ from variant to variant. Some technologies tested/matured on Tayfun will be on the Cenk(like the guidance system). I also expect ship and sub-launched variants. One can made further speculations from scientific papers related to Roketsan.

Tolga Ozbek's video about S-400 tests in Sinop









It’s always fascinating to see how discussions evolve when people dive deep into complex technology topics. Even without getting into specifics, it’s clear that long‑term projects always come down to good planning, reliable data, and consistent workflow. That’s true in any field. I’ve found platforms like fasting calculator app wellness-app helpful for keeping personal routines and goals organized—staying structured makes it easier to stay focused when dealing with demanding subjects.
Thanks for information!

• Roketsan General Manager Murat İkinci:
• We are continuously conducting test activities and serial production efforts on various variants of TAYFUN, which holds the title of Turkey's longest-range ballistic missile produced with national capabilities, symbolizing the latest point our country has reached in this field
• We have added FPV drones, which are known for their speed and agility and are very difficult to target with conventional small arms, to the target set of the Directed Energy Weapon System ALKA. Thus, our country has gained a significant defense capability against kamikaze FPV drones, which have become an important terrorism threat in recent years
• We are continuing our activities for the integration of AKATA into the submarine platforms in the inventory of our Turkish Naval Forces, its serial production, and capacity enhancement. We aim to incorporate this system into the inventory of our Turkish Naval Forces as soon as possible, and subsequently into the inventories of friendly and brotherly countries

Turnover and exports are increasing with guided missiles, growth cannot fit within borders:
• Roketsan General Manager Murat İkinci:
• 2025 was a year of both technological leap and strengthened global visibility for Roketsan
• Throughout the year, we delivered many critical systems to land, air, and sea platforms, proving their success in the field with firing tests
• By raising our R&D budget above 10.5 billion liras, we continued our investments in projects that will shape the future in areas such as satellite launching, advanced materials, energy storage, terminal guidance, and innovative weapon systems
• In 2024, we succeeded in exceeding our targets by increasing our turnover by approximately 45 percent in dollar terms, carrying our export revenues above 380 million dollars. At the end of this year, we will surpass these figures by a much greater margin
• With production facilities we will establish abroad, we are transforming this growth into a global model that can no longer be contained within borders

TÜBİTAK BİLGEM’s "IŞIK” prototype and Roketsan/Aselsan’s "ALKA" system already prove that we can actually light things up. However, these two teams need to merge ASAP.

Think about 100+ kW class high-energy laser system such as UK's (DragonFire) and Israel's (Iron Beam); They are walking toward that way so we NEED TO RUN for it then.

Future lies there cuz:

Basically “not today, agaaa” in laser form.
Would be cheap as fück.
Our updated TF‑2000 / TF1000 destroyers, MUGEM escort groups, and land-based air defense nodes might be MIGHTY!
We have all the ingredients; we just need to turn the oven to 100+ kW! VOILA the cherry on top for our Steel Dome. I hope Mr. Haluk focuses on this too.

Just fantastic all around. Hope we see Tayfun Block-4 launch footage soon.
