TAYFUN Hits the Target Dead-Center in Long-Range Test TurDef
ROKETSAN TAYFUN ballistic missile launched from the BOZAT 8x8 vehicle successfully hit the sea target during the long-range firing test.
ROKETSAN shared the test footage where TAYFUN was launched in a near-vertical position and quickly performed a pull-down manoeuvre to adjust its trajectory. The missile hit the floating ring target on the sea at the end of the test.
The missile is considered an “extended” version of TAYFUN at a length of more than eight meters as opposed to the baseline variant with a length of 6.5 m. The canister is noticeably longer than the BORA SRBM’s, which might be why ROKETSAN switched to a larger 8x8 truck.
TAYFUN is a significantly more capable SRBM than BORA, with hypersonic mid-course speed, longer range, mid-flight manoeuvres, and improved guidance. The most recent hint regarding TAYFUN’s range is President Erdoğan statement as “The stockpile of 800 km-range missiles will be increased”.
So far, TAYFUN has been launched from trucks, but other platforms, such as warships, are under consideration. Theoretically, baseline TAYFUN can fit inside MİDLAS VLS cells with design modifications to minimise pre-launch cross-section. A similar practice can be observed in South Korean Hyunmoo 4-4 and Chinese YJ-21 ballistic missiles.

Dies war der dritte Test einer Tayfun SRBM und die Rakete hat dabei erfolgreich ein Seeziel getroffen. Dieser Test kam nach der Ankündigung von Präsident Recep Tayyip Erdogan, den Bestand an Raketen mit einer Reichweite von 800 km zu erhöhen. Die Tayfun kann von Land aus durch TEL's und theoretisch auch von See durch VLS verschossen werden.
