Difference between BOZOK and MAM-L?
MAM-L was a direct derivative of UMTAS-L,
BOZOK is designed from scratch to be launched from UAVs ,a glide -smart bomb thus lighter (16 Kg) and rumored to carry more payload, and has longer range.

A couple questions:

Those kits make dumb bombs smarter, more precise and give them range. Is that correct?
And those kits a cheaper than a cruise missile?

What is the advantage of a cruise missile? I guess that it can be launched from any sort of plattforms while the others have to be dropped by an aircraft?
Bro i am sure here no one can't know the answer better than you. You asked a trap question for us?

Here is your answer artillery rocket assisted glide bomb

Interesting. But I did not get your question, did I say something wrong?

According to a Russian source Turkey actually tested Gezgin Cruise missile while testing the S400 system in Sinop earlier this year. The missile was launched from a submarine according to the source.
if this news is correct Turkish navy may have a very big advantage in the eastern Med.
provided this is correct I do wonder what engine they used.??!

More likely, it could have been sub-launched Atmaca Blk2. but rumour all the same..

A cruise missile like jasm or SOM have stealth structural geometry. Radars can not lock on to them easily. Also they can fly low and hug terrain. These cheap ones are not quire the same. They have to fly high and glide at terminal stage.

AI-35 engine to be integrated to Gezgin land-attack cruise missile prototypes will be ready in 2021. 12 AI-35 engines will be manufactured for Turkey. I believe Turkish domestic engines will replace them in the serial production phase.

No weapons system without local production capability can be relied upon. The 12 engines seem to be for prototypes only. Local production must be a few short years away. But I have a question...

Does anyone know of a missile equipped with a full size fighter jet engine. Like you strap an F16 engine onto a bundle of 7 rockets and a small wing like it is a cruise missile together with a diameter of 4 feet or so?
How much range would it have with the max speed the engine can afford? It can even take off from a runway like planes on a catapult. The bundled rockets then fire themselves to achieve the ideal impact.

Russia is working on a reusable cruise missile called Krylo SV.
About the jet engine or fighter engine equipped missile i don't know much but there was a German WW2 weapon, V 1 flying bomb. Which was kinda similar what you describe ;).

I am envisioning one where the engine will be integral or separable with the payload and with single or multiple heads or missiles on it. It is just that a fighter turbofan can act as an engine of a very large cruise missile. One that can take off from a catapult or rail accelerator and fly at mach 3 speed and cover 5k+ km with a sizable payload. And the engine will have to be disposed but no problem with that.

Which is actually an UAV, designed to attack designated locations the way cruise missile does, and able to return by terrain-hugging. Terrain hugging may not be possible if size increases.
The size of aircraft would be multiplied by 1.5 or 2.0 to make it able to return (to storage more fuel), larger wings too.
This has been thought,i can assure you. MIUS is actually the same, just it doesn't follow the path of a cruise missile but more of an aircraft's.
Wouldn't be possible to use from submarines-surface assets.
Useful if only intended to be used from homeland, but again as complex as an aircraft and will diverge the commonality thus will cause more operational costs.
