possibly GNSS antennas or some sort of inertial measurement units?

Considering that this was not a one in a million lucky shot but a tremendous leap at Tayfun’s accuracy, can we start to think some kind of ballistic ship ‘killer’ missile concept like Chinese do Now?

 

[Kaan Azman]

Precision is a step on that road, next thing would be developing an active or passive RF seeker. Or even a multi-mode seeker like PrSM Increment 2's

Yes, those who follow this forum already know about Roketsan's antiship ballistic missile research. We discussed that in the past. Many things will be unveiled in a few years noone can hide something for too long.

Roketsan General Manager Murat İkinci had made the following statements in 2023:
“TAYFUN is a deep strike weapon that can hit all elements that may pose a threat to our country. It has the precision to hit the target with pinpoint accuracy. TAYFUN’s development activities will continue uninterrupted.”

I guess he is a man of his words. As well as hitting the target at an extended range with pinpoint accuracy, Tayfun has been in serial production.

But more importantly the bold writing says it all. This probably is a ship killer missile.

At 650 km radius, from Datca peninsula, nothing can be safe East of the Adriatic Sea.

PS 650 km was taken as a possible range, since a NOTAM for 775 km was declared.

The good part is Tayfun is an affordable missile. It is cost-effective to deploy Tayfun against anti-ballistic missile systems and ships. It is a tactical missile that punches way above its weight with a 700+ km range. 1000km variant will be a strawberry on top of the cake.

That could be astronavigation in the night maybe.

 

[KhanOfEurasia]

That could be astronavigation in the night maybe.

I thought the same Way.

 

[Turkic]

That could be astronavigation in the night maybe.

I thought for TERCOM (Terrain Contour Matching). It can work day and night and would help to hit the target bullseye if optimised for it. And they did the test fire on daytime.

The strong, fast and fierce #TAYFUN of our homeland!

Our domestic and national missile TAYFUN hit its target accurately in its long-range test launch.

Inb4 Greece claims that rock too. /s
No but seriously impressive accuracy. Would love to see it in action with a warhead.

Any news about gezgin?

"Saudi Arabia’s GADD and Turkey’s Roketsan continue discussions on a joint R&D project to develop intelligent cruise missiles."

[Turkic]

There's a new video of Gökdoğan's test fire but I couldn't load the video. Perfect bullseye

 

[Sanchez]

New Gökdoğan test. No details on the scope of the test.

[Bilge adam reis]

where is gezgin??

 

[Samba]

can we calculate the distance gökdoğan travelled?

Kozan Erkan:
“Before we get carried away, can someone tell me which aircraft’s radar at TurAF we will be using for guidance?
Our MURAD AESA radar is still in the testing phase. It has not entered mass production yet. It will be a weapon that we can use after it reaches success and enters mass production.
Also, the issue is not altitude”

Yeah, it is guesswork. Even at sea level, I think the missile will have a higher speed than Mach 2. Even the ramjet cruise missiles fly over Mach 2 at sea level.
