This missile was without any guidance systems and other systems. It flew about 80 kilometers and 20km in altitude(not confirmed) . This is not the final product, this missiles purpose was to test the maximum range they can achieve with that missile. Booster is a 20cm longer variant of Atmaca booster (not confirmed). Further prototypes will likely have a TVC enabled longer booster.Turkey test-fires air defense missile Siper - Türkiye News
Turkey successfully test-fired long-range indigenous air defense missile Siper, a top defense official said on Nov. 6.www.hurriyetdailynews.com
I've noticed that several of the news outlets are giving misleading information. They're calling the missile launched Siper, and I've read you guys input on it as well. So question is going to be, is Siper the final missiles name or is Siper the name a group of long range missiles.
I believe it'll be the name of the final missile, so why did the others get their names revamped ?
Also the missile is quite slim as pointed out, if it's 250mm and not very long/tall the estimated range I've seen in the thread puts it around 70-100 km, and if I didn't get it wrong it's with the small booster shown right ?
@Cabatli_53 said (I think it was him) something about the range being impressive comparable with it's size, which I really hope is true. But the question is then what's the speed of the missile ?
Have we managed to create a more fuel efficient booster/rocket engine and how much does it increase the range. Of course I hope that we've made better rocket engine which will mean smaller and slimmer missiles will have 20-30% longer range, but I'm not sure if it's a dream atm
