Türkiye Develops Hypersonic Missile Based on Tayfun BRMS
Turkish defense concern Roketsan is developing and testing a hypersonic modification of its ballistic missile missiles short-range Tayfun.
As indicated on local resources, the new version of the BRMD is capable of reaching speeds of 5,5 M:
According to informal classification, missiles with a flight speed of over Mach 5 are considered hypersonic.
Tayfun could operate at a range of 560 km in the early stages of development. However, its flight range is gradually increasing. It is planned to reach 1000 km.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan said.
Retired General Frangoulis Fragos, former Chief of Staff of the Greek Army, indicated that Türkiye is developing a ballistic guided missile capable of hitting targets at a distance of up to 2500 km.
As noted by Roketsan, Tayfun not only has high firing accuracy, but is also capable of actively maneuvering during flight, which makes it difficult for the enemy to detect and destroy the missile.
