It's interesting that there are two organisations competing for Turkey's naval point defence system, though I think Roketsan will secure the contract because of their more advanced seeker solution and made for purpose system. Compared to Aselsan's adaptation of Goksur AA missile and single seeker - VLS is a nice addition however.

The Gökdemir 100 system can operate with 8 missiles ready to fire at a range of 20 km and an altitude of 10 km using existing RF-guided Gökdoğan AA missiles. Thanks to its own command control, it can work in integration with existing radar systems and the Siper air defense system.

Did someone from Tübitak gave a reason why they are using liquid fuel for the Gökhan ramjet and not solid one (like most of the competition, besides perhaps India).

Is it just for the speed control advantage?
My best guess is, they have the intention to follow US/S.Korea/Japan in the Hypersonic cruise missile business (Hydrogen fuel+Scramjet like X-51A) and use this missile as a stepping stone to get familiar with the challenges.

There are currently 3 different BMs in either active development/near induction stages:

  • Tayfun: SRBM, basically an improved Bora TBM, Range: 500<×<800(?) km = IN SERVICE

  • Cenk: MRBM, >1000km = UNDER TESTING/NEAR INDUCTION

  • Timur(?): MRBM, not much is known = IN ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT

Roketsan General Manager Murat İkinci:

"The Tayfun family will not be just one product, just one missile. Tayfun will actually be a family of ballistic missiles where there are multiple blocks, with different ranges and different warhead

Production continues as it is, and the development of new variants is also proceeding at full speed to increase the diversity of this family. Turkey will become one of the leading countries in the world in terms of ballistic missile technologies in the upcoming period."
