ASELSAN Reveals TOLUN F SDB with Alternative Warhead TurDef
ASELSAN announced the new member of the TOLUN small-diameter bomb family as TOLUN F, which is fitted with a fragmentation warhead instead of penetrating.
TOLUN F, like the baseline TOLUN, uses GNSS/INS guidance. However, the warhead is an alternative one that uses fragmentation effect instead of penetration by hard shell.
TurDef learned that despite the form similarity with TOLUN IIR, the munition has no seeker. This hints at a more cost-effective solution with simpler guidance, as IIR seekers have considerable costs. Additionally, the warhead might be common with TOLUN IIR because the seeker-fitted variant uses a fragmentation warhead as well.
As expected, the bomb can be used from SADAK-4T and SADAK-2T smart racks or, in the case of some UCAVs like Akıncı and Bayraktar TB3, singular hardpoints.
