Turkey launches in series of ROKETSAN ROKETSAN Rocket: Weapons Features (Video)

This was reported on July 9 by the Spanish newspaper Defensa. After successful test launches, the Roketsan is ready to present and sell a rocket to potential clients, both domestic and international. Çakir is a winged rocket with a compact and optimized design. The weight of the rocket is 270 kg, the length is 3. 3 m, and the diameter of the fuselage is only 27 cm.

The rocket is equipped with a KTJ-1750 turbine, developed by the Turkish company Kale Arge, which allows it to hit targets at a distance of more than 150 kilometers. An efficient airfast system, located in the lower part of the rocket, contributes to its high range of flight. One of the key features of çakir is a modular approach that allows you to run a rocket from different platforms, including ground installations, ships, aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles.

This greatly expands its versatility and makes it applicable in various combat scenarios. With regard to destructive power, it is emphasized that the çakir is equipped with a powerful 70-pound thermobaric charge and an advanced guidance system that combines infrared image and radio frequency. This provides high accuracy and efficiency of the rocket during the defeat of a wide range of targets, including infrastructure objects and fortifications in complex areas of the area, such as caves.

Another important characteristic of the rocket is the fuselage made of materials that absorb radar rays, which complicates its detection. The rocket is also equipped with guidance systems that can receive additional data in flight, providing excellent characteristics in adverse weather conditions. In addition, the rocket uses GNSS technology, interference resistant, as well as radar and barometric altonces for accurate navigation.
