Looks different than original SOMSOM-J missile acceptance tests

SOM-J Füzesi Kabul Testine Hazırlanıyor | SavunmaSanayiST
TÜBİTAK-SAGE tarafından geliştirilen SOM-J Seyir Füzesi, kabul testine hazırlanıyor. Bu kapsamda SOM-J'nin, bu yıl içerisinde F-16'dan atılması planlanıyor.www.savunmasanayist.com
What is differenceLooks different than original SOM
Any idea why?What is difference
Edit:
I think you have your fair share. There is an extra parallel protrusion
You can hit moving targets but it is not ideal. If the IIR seeker sees it, it will hit it. The problem is ship might move out of the IIR seeker's sight by the time the missile gets there.when ı write on savtera forum that som B cannot hit moving targets on sea they kicked me out,so we make som J for sea targets plus for stealth fighters
That is a valid question!
Unless we are using a very powerful explosive that we are not aware of, the frontal penetration power of Tanok on modern tanks is open to discussion. But top attack capability of Tanok makes it a missile to be reckoned with.
The Israeli version Lahat has an effective penetration of up to 800 mm of RHA armor steel with its tandem warhead. It is 2kg heavier and travels at just under 0.9 Mach. It is similar in length to Tanok and it’s diameter is 105mm.
NAME | DIAMETER | WEIGHT | TYPE/ WARHEAD WEIGHT | RHA PENETRATION |
---|---|---|---|---|
9M119 Svir/Refleks | 125mm | 17kg | Tandem HEAT / 4.5kg | 700-900mm |
TANOK | 120mm | 11kg | Tandem HEAT /n/a | n/a |
KONUS | 120mm | 28kg | Tandem HEAT / n/a | 800mm |
LAHAT | 105mm | 12.kg | Tandem HEAT / 2.5kg | 800mm *supposedly* |
STUGNA | 105mm | 24kg | Tandem HEAT / n/a | 550mm |
I expect that after the US, China, Russia and maybe Japan. Turkey will follow closely fielding an operational system.The first national Hypersonic missile is expected to appear by the end of this decade. There are projects for sub-technologies of hypersonic missiles like combustion chambers ceramic bogeyman posted above and structural heat resistant advanced alloys/materials. Body heat shield materials, insulation materials for electronics etc. Supersonic flight and ramjet technology are pretty well established at this point. It is only a matter of time before products pop out.
noopAny idea why?
Wasn't it cancelled?Is there any information relating to Roketsan's Cida ? Wasn't present during IDEF'21..

Wasn't it cancelled?
There was a company developing Carl Gustav clone, not remember the name might be some pictures in IDEF thread.Is there any national RPG/Carl Gustav project? Karaok is nice but definitely too expensive to equip every unit with it.
I believe a TRG series missile has speed past mach 3.Is turkey developing any missiles beyond 3-4 mach? Something equivalent to russian zircon missile for example?
