ROKETSAN Shares Multi-Purpose Munition Before IDEF25 TurDef
Before the IDEF25 defence exhibition, ROKETSAN gave a peek into a rather unique looking munition described as being multi-purpose and having high speed.
The upcoming multi-purpose munition appears to have a turbojet engine as seen from the nozzle and inlets. Additionally, the optical seeker (Unknown if TV or IIR) is also seen from the teaser.
The details and ROKETSAN’s description hint at a jet-powered loitering munition that can be launched like a missile from surface or air platforms and engage both surface and air targets using the optical seeker.
A similar work to this prediction is the Coyote Block 2 of Raytheon, which is also powered by a small turbojet engine and is intended for use against UAVs. However, it should be noted that Coyote Block 2 uses a mmWR seeker instead of an optical one.
It is known from the previous teasers that ROKETSAN will also unveil an artillery rocket or ballistic missile, which appears to be an aeroballistic missile, a ramjet-powered missile, and an underwater launch capsule.

Zitat:Türkiye to debut TAYFUN hypersonic ballistic missile at IDEF 2025 defence exhibition
By Defence Industry Europe
Leading Turkish arms manufacturer Roketsan achieved a successful test of its short-range ballistic missile Tayfun (Typhoon) in the Black Sea province of Rize on Tuesday. The test marks a significant milestone for Turkey's missile capabilities.

Türkiye is set to present its most advanced ballistic missile yet at the IDEF 2025 defence industry exhibition in Istanbul, signalling a major development in the country’s strategic strike capabilities. The TAYFUN missile, domestically developed by Roketsan, will be publicly displayed for the first time during the event, which runs from 22 to 27 July at the Istanbul Exhibition Center.
Described as Türkiye’s longest-range missile to date, TAYFUN has a stated range of 500 to 800 kilometres, with future versions aiming to exceed 1,000 kilometres. The missile has been engineered for high precision, reportedly capable of striking targets within a margin of approximately five metres, including moving naval assets at sea.
The system is mobile-launched, allowing for rapid relocation and quick deployment, features that increase its survivability in contested environments. Turkish defence analysts note that TAYFUN is hypersonic, resistant to jamming, and difficult for adversaries to intercept, underlining Ankara’s continued focus on indigenous defence technologies.
