Turkey is consolidating a multi-layered deterrent architecture built around Roketsan’s expanding indigenous missile and rocket portfolio. Backed by Defence Industry Agency programs, Roketsan offers systems that cover short, medium and long ranges and are deployable from land, air and naval platforms. This coherent family—from tactical artillery rockets to long-range cruise and ballistic solutions—aims to deny, disrupt or decisively shape adversary action across operational depths while reducing reliance on foreign supply chains.
On the land-attack and strike side, systems such as TAYFUN and BORA extend Turkey’s reach beyond frontline positions: TAYFUN reportedly achieves very high speeds and is designed for reduced vulnerability to point air-defence, while BORA provides long-range precision effects against radars, command nodes and logistics hubs. The TRG series (TRG-122 / TRG-230 / TRG-300) gives commanders graduated options for rapid, high-precision fires from roughly 10 km up to 120 km, with laser-seeker or inertial/GNSS guidance variants that improve terminal accuracy and minimize collateral damage in complex environments.
Aerial and naval strike capabilities are also strengthened by Roketsan’s smart munitions and missiles. SOM and air-launched ballistic/supersonic munitions expand stand-off options for aircraft and unmanned platforms; ATMACA and ÇAKIR enhance anti-surface warfare with long-range sea-strike reach. Torpedo developments such as AKYA and ORKA complement surface and subsurface lethality. Across the board, precision kits (TEBER, LAÇİN) and mini-smart munitions (MAM family, METE) broaden mission flexibility for manned and unmanned carriers.
Complementing strike forces, integrated air-defence systems (SİPER, HİSAR family, LEVENT, BURÇ and mobile solutions like SUNGUR) and launcher architectures (MiDLAS) build a layered protective umbrella for critical infrastructure and deployed forces. Combined, these capabilities reflect a strategic shift toward nationally produced, interoperable and exportable missile ecosystems intended to heighten Turkey’s deterrence posture and operational independence.
