AKINCI UCAV Fires UAV-122 Supersonic Air-to-Ground Missile
Baykar’s AKINCI UCAV fired ROKETSAN’s İHA-122 Supersonic Air-to-Ground missile following the larger UAV-230 missile.
The new missile fired from AKINCI UCAV hit the target 55 km distance. İHA-122 is developed from TRG-122 122 mm guided artillery rocket, much like its predecessor UAV-230, based on TRG-230 230 mm guided artillery rocket.
Considering the nature of air-launched ballistic munitions, UAV-122 will likely achieve longer ranges at the following firing tests. This can be explained by different altitudes of launch contributing to the range. This can be observed in the UAV-230 missile, where the range went up to 140 km from 100 km of the first firing test.
