The perfect weapon against Aircraft Carriers and Destroyers.

Do you know whether the target has to be stationary, or can it still be hit if it’s travelling at 15–25 knots?
Since all fleet operations has to be conducted on move (except maybe landing operations), I assume it must be while the vessel is moving.

Company says surgical precision and not an empty fashion, that is indeed "surgical precision"

Maneuvering to hit a moving ship while flying at hypersonic speeds. So we have now surpassed the level of a ballistic missile that hits a stationary target with pinpoint accuracy (zero deviation).

Bro, fantastic news that they are working on an anti ship ballistic missile. But don’t get too enthusiastic yet.
1. The target was not moving.
2. Have they confirmed the terminal speed to be hypersonic?
3. Did the missile contain explosives?

1. it is a different cattle of fish to hit a moving target. That will come in time. This probably was GOLIS impact.
2. & 3. If the terminal speed was hypersonic, The impact video is awesome. It does look like a very high speed impact.
If the terminal speed was hypersonic, how did they achieve it?

Our dreams are starting to become reality!

This could be just the first test or just to verify the sensor. Doubtful roketsan or ssb would make promises it cant keep.

2. & 3. If the terminal speed was hypersonic, that impact picture is probably without explosives. The impact video is awesome. It does look like a very high speed impact.

Even if ships move 200-300 meters after the ballistic missile is first launched, the resulting deflection nullifies the destructive effect of the ballistic missile. Here, the chosen target was a small boat. This means the boat would be much faster than a warship. Therefore, the maneuver performed in response to the updated target will also need to adapt accordingly.

Bro, imho the speed at moment of Impact looks like around Mach 3.

Whether the trawler seems moving or not if Roketsan say it is a moving target I believe this capability is acquired.

According to this article they are saying :
The missile, which reached hypersonic speeds during the terminal phase, destroyed a highly maneuverable, small-sized surface target by striking it directly.
This success that TAYFUN BLOK 3 has demonstrated against mobile surface platforms,


This is contradictory to what we are seeing. That boat is not moving. It is definitely stationary. (Come to think about it, have we ever seen Atmaca hitting a ship or similar target moving at any speed?)

If they are distorting or twisting the truth with their moving target impact, I wonder how truthful they are being with the hypersonic speeds at terminal phase. (Mind you, during initial part of the terminal phase, until 15000 m altitude the missile is most likely at hypersonic speeds.)
If they are restarting engine at terminal phase to give them hypersonic impact, even for a few seconds, that is some technical feat of achievement.
