TR Small Aerial Drones & Loitering Ammunitions

[Tornadoss]

EREN Loitering Munition was unveiled at IDEF 2025!

Range of over 100 km
Can engage air and ground targets
Can be launched from unmanned and various platforms

Is there max engagement altitude given? What is 15+ min lotering time?

It can stay in the air for 15 minutes, it can loiter in a designated area for that time, or go straight to target 100 km away.

 

[boredaf]

Since Eren can be launched from UAV/Helicopter too, i think its range will be limited when launched from ground.

But which was the range that was given to us? Range from the ground or from air? I'm more inclined towards the given range is when it is launched from the ground as they have also shown a launcher. Or, I missed something, which is also possible

 

[boredaf]

Yeah i edited my post, we will have to wait for the official brochure or...
@Kaan Azman can you please ask Roketsan?

If the range is from the ground, it is going to have even longer range from the air which would make it probably the single best option to use with our smaller drones, especially against air defences. There is only a handful of systems that can target a drone, let's say, 150 km away.

Eren is a better version of Iran's 358 air defense missile.

 

[Radko]

ST claims EREN is in advanced stage or maybe he means, it is already in use (end of video)

It is not in use

Swarm Attack by KARGU!
KARGU Loitering Munitions, armed with multiple warheads, launched a coordinated swarm attack with autonomous precision.
Autonomy. Coordination. Accuracy.
Redefining the battlefield through engineering.

Yeah, they had to show the impact(s) there, it isn't enough to show just a flyby and cut to static.

 

[boredaf]

Those things are expensive
They just wanted to show its swarm capability.

Fair enough mate, but it would've hammered their point home if they had shown drones hitting targets one after another.

Isn't the point of those kind of drones to be cheap?

Isn't the point of those kind of drones to be cheap?

You can make them cheap by buying boatloads of them. And nationalize components to the max so money stays in the country.

Or even if you don't, having the capability is very good as the know-how is transferrable.

To top it off, it can be used in niche cases by special forces even if it is never produced in the thousands.

@boredaf guess the warhead

We have successfully integrated an armor-piercing warhead and a fiber-optic cable into our national kamikaze drone solution, KARGUFPV, following the anti-personnel payload.

Uninterrupted communication
High impact on armored targets

Can't see the tweet mate, but I'm gonna guess M72?

 

[boredaf]

fck, i wanted to make a joke about the claymore option.

Lmao, well, I always expect STM to use claymore for anti-personnel and M72 for anti-armour. What did they use this time?

 

[boredaf]

exactly those two, again

There might come a time when STM surprises us by using, I don't know, just a slap of C4 and an RPG warhead, but its not today

Has this been shared already?

MKE'den dolanan mühimmat ailesi

MKE, dolanan mühimmat ürün ailesi kapsamında lançer sisteminden atılabilen 3 farklı versiyondaki bulut altı İHA sistemini sergiledi.

MKE unveiled its foldable-wing loitering munitions product family at the IDEF 2025 Fair. Scaled prototypes of three different munitions were presented at the fair, each developed for use on the battlefield with anti-jammer capabilities.

The fiber-optic cable-driven loitering munition system is capable of carrying a 5 kg high-explosive (HE) warhead and a steel ball warhead, with a total mass of 20 kg. The platform, which operates with an effective range of 40 km, is equipped with RF search capabilities. Its primary objective on the battlefield is to destroy jammer systems.

The electric-powered loitering munition is equipped with a 5 kg steel ball and a high-explosive (HE) warhead. It has a 30-minute flight endurance and a maximum speed of 150 km/h. This system can transmit via SLP (note: I have no idea what this is and what was written in the article makes no sense) and can be integrated with the Inertial Navigation System (INS). The munition, which operates with an effective range of 40 km, carries a GPS guidance kit with an electric or electromechanical fuse.

The turbine-jet-powered loitering munition is equipped with a 20 kg warhead and a total mass of 60 kg. With a maximum speed of 300 km/h, this system was developed to deliver high performance in a cost-effective manner. It has the capacity to carry 18 kg high explosive (HE) and steel ball warhead.

Well they dont always show products which are in development but already in testing phase or already in production so nothing new but idef now allows them to share them with the public

Wtf is going on with this thing???

LENTATEK exported KARGI to an undisclosed country.

LENTATEK'ten KARGI ihracatı

• Altınay Defense Technologies aims to have the ALKARA Anti-Drone Air Defense System ready by 2026 • In the first phase, wired FPV drones have been targeted. Configurations targeting delta-wing threats, reaching higher speeds and altitudes, will also be available • A system similar to air defense is being developed to neutralize threats targeting sea platforms • For electronic warfare purposes, an airborne vehicle is being created to serve as a decoy system that diverts the threat away from the ship • The cost-effective system is expected to have significant appeal in the global market.

A contract was signed between TİTRA Technology and the Presidency of Defense Industries of the Republic of Turkey for the procurement of the DUMRUL Armed Mini Unmanned Helicopter.

DUMRUL, a silent helicopter powered by an electric motor, can be armed with 81/60 millimeter mortars, grenade launchers or METE Mini Missiles. Designed for close-range surveillance, DUMRUL can neutralize targets with these weapon systems mounted underneath and integrated imaging capabilities. Developed in line with user needs, the aircraft was designed for effective weapon use in short-range operations.

How? What makes it silent? Did they explain it somewhere or is it our usual defense news media? I really hope they didn't write silent because of electric motor.

No idea mate, but if I had to bet I'd put my money on what you said, "it has electric motor, so it must be silent"
