Tolun is being produced in robotic serial production lines with capacity to build thousands per month. Very long range variants with propulsion is also incoming

That is fantastic news. Long range Tolun, with its different variants, would be an incredible asset to have.

So that means the variant with the Delta V engine will be mass produced, fantastic news !

Not necessarily Tolun S would be for Army and army is a bit slow so this could be just for airforce. Also a longer ranged Tolun would be equipped with a turbo jet like Kuzgun TJ or spear.

Don’t think there will be much interest in a Ground Launched Tolun as the American equivalent GLSDB performed horrific in Ukraine.

I mean didn't SDB in general regardless of launch method perform badly in Ukraine because it is a relatively old weapon that wasn't designed to deal with the GPS jamming? From what I remember they couldn't use it in rangers longer that 30 km even from the jets

Yeah that was what I meant. I don't think it makes sense to compare sdb and tolun one to one since there is more than 20 years between their development. There was neither much emphasis on GPS free navigation then nor the technology to do it in small size factor like today
