TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

[dBSPL]

So, theoretically, we can slap 8 of these beauties on Akıncı and still have about 500 kg of payload capacity left? Nice

Let's make it 10 then.

I think the other development program that is as exciting as TOLUN is KAGEM, which is still very much in the shadows. Baykar KAGEM air-launched low-cost UAV system that can have various payloads. I think it is very likely that there will be a mid-air recoverabilty target in the later stages of the program. Or it will pave the way for that type of system. Baykar is closing the only blind spot in its product range.

This type of air-dropped multi-purpose drone/loitering munitions and small diameter smart munition systems such as TOLUN, which combine precision guidance with highly effective warheads, will keep AKINCI and AKSUNGUR UCAV systems at a very different point from their peers.

Here, it is specified as less than 8 meters

Excellent, thank you.

I first thought if I was mistaken, but then I found it. 15 metre comes from these post

Either at first they gave a very Conservative estimate 'with less than15 metre' than changed it to actual CEP, or miniature bomb gradually evolved into a better product later.

Baykar should build an anti-radiation kamikaze drone instead of that.Vestel's project is progressing very slowly...

Bozdoğan Missile is Merlin
Gökdoğan Missile is Peregrine

Its not the birds I get confused with. Which one is BVR and which one is WVR, that's what I need to know.

Upper one is the BVR.

 

[Sanchez]

Wasn't Bozdoğan the WVR one? Did they change it again? This is getting frustrating, just give them numbers damn it.

 

[Heartbang]

Upper one is the BVR.

When I type "Bozdoğan füzesi" to Google it shows the WVR one

Exactly, a huge confusion is going on around this.
But this photo makes it clear.

Or, we could put 2 UAV-230's on top of 8 Tolun's and we'd still be under the payload capacity of Akıncı, which is 1500 kg unless I'm mistaken.

 

[Heartbang]

But this photo makes it clear.

Sadly, it does not.

Bozdoğan is short, Gökdoğan is medium.
Bozdoğan= aim9-x sidewinder, Gökdoğan= Aim-120 AMRAAM
The missiles look fairly similar too.
Somehow they manage to make the image on the The mock-up? thing wrong, they put the wrong images on missiles. Bozdoğan's flap situated in the front part while Gökdoğan's flap on the middle part.
When i first heard the names i coded Bozdoğan=kısa, Gökdoğan=uzun as B comes earlier than G. Also you can remember GÖkdoğan ( Görüş Ötesi).

 

[Afif]

Sadly, it does not.

Look carefully at those missile 'tattoos' before the names.

Just wanted to say that this lady did a better job than 90% of defence journalists.
Prepared, on point and no BS.

No way, my photo is the latest.
So I win.

 

[Osman]

What do you think is the reason of range difference between tolun IIR (80 km) and tolun (100 km)?

The limits caused by two way data link? I dont think so, it this was the case, what about som c and j having two way data link and much more range

At the early stage of the project bozdoğan was amraam equivalent and gökdoğan was turkish aim 9 x. After for a while they decided on the other way, which is true, cause in world of raptors bozdoğan (merlin) is smaller than gökdoğan (peregrine)
